Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 Rice Cake
  • 1-2 Tablespoons Peanut Butter (or substitute nut butter or nut-free alternative of choice)
  • 2 Tablespoons Dark Chocolate Chips
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Coconut Oil
  • 1 Pinch Flaky Sea Salt (optional; for garnishing)


Instructions

  1. Spread Peanut Butter: Start by coating the top of your rice cake evenly with peanut butter or your chosen nut butter alternative to create a flavorful base.
  2. Melt Chocolate and Coconut Oil: Place dark chocolate chips and coconut oil in a small bowl and microwave in two 30-second increments, stirring between each to ensure smooth, fully melted chocolate. Alternatively, use a double boiler on the stove to melt gently.
  3. Drizzle Chocolate: Drizzle the melted chocolate mixture evenly over the peanut butter-coated rice cake for a rich, glossy finish.
  4. Add Flaky Salt and Freeze: Sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt on top for a touch of savory contrast, then place the rice cake in the freezer for 10 minutes to allow the chocolate to solidify.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Once the chocolate has hardened, remove from the freezer and enjoy your tasty snack immediately.

Notes

  • You can substitute peanut butter with any nut butter or a nut-free alternative according to your dietary preference.
  • If you prefer, melt the chocolate using a double boiler instead of a microwave to avoid overheating.
  • Flaky sea salt is optional but highly recommended to enhance the flavor with a slight salty crunch.
  • For variation, try using milk or white chocolate chips instead of dark chocolate.
  • Store the assembled rice cake in the freezer if not consuming immediately to keep the chocolate firm.
