Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 crispy treats
Ingredients
  • 4 ounces (scant ½ cup) dark or semi-sweet dairy-free chocolate chips
  • 4 teaspoons coconut oil
  • ¾ cup marshmallow creme or fluff (see post above on vegan)
  • 3 cups crispy rice cereal (gluten-free, if needed)
  • Optional add-ins (to taste): vanilla extract, peppermint extract, chili powder, crystalized ginger, chopped dried fruit, or ground cinnamon
Instructions
  1. Melt the chocolate in a medium to large bowl.
  2. Stir in the coconut oil and marshmallow crème / fluff until smooth. Add the cereal and any optional add-ins, and gently stir to combine.
  3. Divide the mixture between 12 muffin cups (I prefer paper, lined muffin cups, or silicone muffin cups for easy removal).
  4. Press the mixture into the cups either lightly or firmly. They will hold together even if loosely packed. I use a little piece of plastic wrap or parchment when pressing to keep the mixture rom sticking to my fingers. If using vegan marshmallow creme, you may find that the mixture is much stickier. If it is too sticky, refrigerate the treats for 5 minutes, and then press in.
  5. Place the crispy treats in the freezer for 15 minutes. Pop them out and enjoy!
Notes
Storage: These chocolate crispy treats will get very hard if stored in the freezer for more than the 15 minutes. Store them in an airtight container on the counter or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Or if you freeze them, let them defrost for 15 minutes or more, as needed, to soften.
