Ingredients for Chocolate Rice Krispies Treats
- Crispy Brown Rice Cereal: This cereal provides the crispy texture in the treats and is a healthier alternative to traditional rice cereal, offering whole grain goodness.
- Peanut Butter: Adds a creamy and nutty flavor while serving as a binding agent for the ingredients. It also contributes healthy fats and protein.
- Milk Chocolate: For a chocolatey and decadent flavor.
Instructions
- Lightly grease an 8×8-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
- Melt the milk chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the crispy brown rice cereal, peanut butter and milk chocolate. Use a spatula to gently fold everything together until the cereal is evenly coated.
- Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Use a spatula to press the mixture firmly and evenly into the pan.
- Place the pan in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or until the treats are firm and set.
