Ingredients
- 1 cup melted dark chocolate
- ⅓ cup all natural creamy peanut butter
- ½ cup brown rice cereal, see note
- 2 tbsp pure maple syrup
Instructions
- First, line a muffin pan with 6 paper liners.
- Pour melted chocolate into the bottom of each liner to completely coat the liner.
- In a small bowl, combine the peanut butter, rice cereal, and maple syrup. Stir until combined.
- Divide this mixture into 6 equal parts and place on top of the chocolate mixture.
- Drizzle the remaining melted chocolate on top.
- Place in the fridge for 15 minutes or until the chocolate has hardened.
- Finally, remove from the fridge and eat! Store in the fridge.
Notes
- If desired, use semisweet or milk chocolate instead of dark chocolate.
- Kellogg rice krispie cereal is not gluten free. I recommend using The Real Cereal Company's brown rice cereal.
- Use all natural creamy peanut butter. Feel free to use almond butter or cashew butter if desired.
- Chill in the fridge until the chocolate has completely hardened.
- Store leftovers in the fridge or freezer for up to a month.
