- 3 cups Rice Krispies cereal (the classic crispy goodness)
- 1 1/2 cups vegan chocolate chips (because who doesn’t love chocolate?)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Muffin Pan:
- Line a muffin pan with liners and give them a light spray of non-stick spray to ensure your treats come out easily.

- Fill the Muffin Pan:
- Evenly distribute the peanut butter and Rice Krispies mixture into the lined muffin pan. Press down firmly to ensure everything sticks together nicely and there are no crumbly bits.
- Melt the Chocolate:
- In another saucepan over low heat, melt the vegan chocolate chips. Stir constantly until the chocolate is perfectly melted and smooth. Be careful not to burn the chocolate!
- Top with Chocolate:
- Spoon the melted chocolate over each treat in the muffin pan, distributing it smoothly and evenly. Feel free to get creative and make some swirls or patterns with the chocolate.
- Chill the Treats:
- Place the muffin pan in the refrigerator and let the treats firm up. This won’t take too long – just enough time to build up your anticipation!
