PEANUT BUTTER CHOCOLATE CRUNCH BARS |
½ cup smooth peanut butter |
¼ cup maple syrup |
1 tsp vanilla extract |
5 rice cakes |
CHOCOLATE TOPPING |
½ cup dark chocolate chips |
3 tsp coconut oil |
¼ tsp sea salt |
Line a 14 cm by 23 cm (5.5 inch by 9 inch) baking loaf pan with baking/parchment paper.
Mix the peanut butter, maple syrup, and vanilla in a small bowl until smooth and well combined.
Crumble the rice cakes into a large bowl. Pour over the peanut butter mixture and combine using a wooden spoon. The crunch mixture should stick together in large clumps.
Transfer the peanut butter crunch mixture to the lined pan and evenly spread using a spoon. Lay another piece of baking/parchment paper on top of the crunch base, and firmly press the mixture into the pan using your hands. Firmly pressing the mixture into the pan will help stop it from crumbling when you cut it. Remove the baking/parchment paper.
Place the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Melt the chocolate in 20 second bursts, stirring each time, until smooth.
Pour the chocolate evenly over the top of the peanut butter crunch base. Sprinkle with sea salt and place in the freezer for 30 minutes to set.
Cut into 5 crunch bars and enjoy!
