Rice Cake Magic Bars
Ingredients

- ¾ cup creamy all-natural almond butter (peanut butter or cashew butter also work)
- ½ cup honey
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 teaspoons coconut oil
- Coarse sea salt for topping
Instructions
- Line a 9×9-inch pan with parchment paper and set it aside.
- Crumble 4 rice cakes into a large bowl using your hands, ensuring no big chunks remain and they are similar in size. Set aside.
- Heat the almond butter, honey, and sea salt in a saucepan over medium/low heat for 5-7 minutes or until melted together and glossy.
- Pour the almond butter mixture over the rice cake crumbles and stir until well coated.
- Transfer the mixture into the lined pan and firmly press it evenly down. Set aside.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Heat in 20-second increments, stirring after each, until melted and glossy.
- Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the almond butter rice cakes. Spread it evenly with a spatula. Sprinkle coarse sea salt on top and transfer to the freezer for at least 15-20 minutes to set.
- Once set, chop into squares and enjoy!
Notes
