Ingredients

Scale

Chocolate Mixture

  • ¾ cup chocolate of your choice (for melting)
  • 1 tsp virgin or refined coconut oil

Toppings (suggestions or your preference)

  • Chopped nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts)
  • Chopped dried or fresh fruit

Rice Cakes Base

  • Rice cakes (quantity as needed)
  • Optional: Your choice of butter such as coconut butter or peanut butter (to spread on rice cakes)

Instructions

  1. Melt the chocolate: Melt the chocolate using either a microwave or a bain-marie. For microwave, heat chocolate in short bursts, stirring between each until completely melted and smooth. For bain-marie, place a glass bowl over a simmering pot of water, ensuring no steam touches the chocolate, then add chocolate and coconut oil, stirring gently as it melts to a smooth consistency.
  2. Prepare toppings: Chop any large nuts or fruit into smaller pieces and arrange toppings in small containers for easy sprinkling.
  3. Assemble rice cakes: Place approximately 4 rice cakes on a cutting board. If using, spread a generous layer of your chosen butter (such as coconut or peanut butter) on each cake. Then spread a generous layer of the melted chocolate, covering almost to the edges.
  4. Add toppings: While the chocolate is still wet and runny, sprinkle your desired toppings evenly over each rice cake.
  5. Set the treats: Transfer the assembled rice cakes onto a baking tray and place it in the fridge until the chocolate hardens completely.
  6. Serve or store: Once chilled and set, enjoy the treats immediately or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to eat.

Notes

  • Use any type of chocolate you prefer, such as dark, milk, or white chocolate.
  • Choosing virgin or refined coconut oil helps achieve a smoother melting texture for the chocolate.
  • You can customize toppings based on seasonality or preference, including seeds, shredded coconut, or sprinkles.
  • Spreading a butter layer like peanut butter adds flavor and helps toppings stick better, but it is optional.
  • Refrigerate treats properly to prevent chocolate melting and to maintain crispness of rice cakes.
