Ingredients

  • 1 cup - dark chocolate
  • ⅓ cup - all natural creamy peanut butter
  • ½ cup - brown rice cereal

Instructions

  1. First, line a muffin pan with 6 paper liners.
  2. Pour melted chocolate into the bottom of each liner to completely coat the liner.
  3. In a small bowl, combine the peanut butter, rice cereal (Kellogg rice krispie cereal is not gluten free. I recommend using The Real Cereal Company’s brown rice cereal), and maple syrup. Stir until combined.
  4. Divide this mixture into 6 equal parts and place on top of the chocolate mixture.
  5. Drizzle the remaining melted chocolate on top.
  6. Place in the fridge for 15 minutes or until the chocolate has hardened.
  7. Finally, remove from the fridge and eat! Store in the fridge.
