Peanut Butter & Chocolate Crispy Slice

February 18, 2021 by Samantha Leave a Comment

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe
Peanut Butter & Chocolate Crispy Slice! Indulgent dark chocolate topping with a rich peanut butter base. Add a crunchy texture into the mix and you got a scrumptious sweet treat to snack on! You can cut these into small squares or longer bars. 
The base is 5 ingredients:

Peanut Butter – you can use either crunchy or smooth, I love to use crunchy for this! 
Maple Syrup 
Coconut Oil 
Desiccated Coconut 
Rice Puff Cereal

It’s sweetened with maple syrup so no need to use any refined white sugar in this. The crunchy texture is from the rice puff cereal, I use this one from Natures Way. Some rice puffs brands tend to lose their crisp-ness when added to recipes such as this one. To prevent this, I like to pop the rice puffs in a fry pan and cook them for about 3-5 minutes until lightly golden, this will make them remain crisp.  

The topping is made with dark chocolate and a tablespoon of peanut butter blended through it, talk about yum! 

Hope you enjoy this slice, perfect for any age!
