Ingredients

Base

3 cups Puffed Rice
1 cup Natural Peanut Butter
1/4 cup Coconut Oil melted
1/4 cup Maple Syrup
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1/2 tsp Salt

Top Layer

2 cup Dark Chocolate Chips melted
1 tbsp Coconut Oil

Instructions

Add all the base ingredients except puffed rice into a bowl and whisk well to combine.
Add puffed rice and stir again until the rice is well coated.
Line a 6” tray with baking paper and pour in the puffed rice mixture.Press with a spoon until the entire surface is covered. It should be wellcompacted with no gaps. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Melt the dark chocolate (or milk if using) with coconut oil in a double-boiler over the stove. This can also be done in the microwave for cook 45 seconds but I prefer the double-boiler method as it gives the chocolate a glossy shine and avoids burning.
Remove the puffed rice mix from the refrigerator and drizzle over themelted chocolate. Make sure the whole base is covered.
Return to the refrigerator for another 30 minutes or until the chocolate is hard.
Once hardened, slice into 10 bars.
