Vegan rice crispie treats with chocolate coating

 Recipes pulled from: https://www.noracooks.com/vegan-rice-krispie-treats/#wprm-recipe-container-8045


Ingredients:

  • 3/4 cup vegan butter
  • 2 10-ounce bags vegan marshmallows*
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 8 cups rice krispie cereal*

Directions:

  • Line a 9 x 13 inch baking pan with parchment paper and lightly spray with oil. Set aside.
  • In a large pot, melt the vegan butter. Now add the vegan marshmallows and stir, until the marshmallows are melted. They won't melt as well as regular marshmallows, but they should still melt and turn into sort of a big blob.
  • Remove the pan from heat and stir in the vanilla. Now fold in the cereal using a large spoon or spatula. There will be chunks of marshmallows and that's okay, just try to coat all the cereal.
  • Transfer to the prepared pan and press down evenly either with your hands or a spatula. You can lightly grease the spatula if it sticks.
  • Allow the treats to cool for 1 hour. Remove from the pan, using the parchment paper, then cut into squares and serve. Enjoy!



Step 2!!

I dipped these in chocolate and covered in sprinkles. Here's the steps I used to do that (via a recipe for chocolate covered strawberries) https://www.delish.com/cooking/recipe-ideas/a58094/how-to-make-chocolate-covered-strawberries/

Ingredients:
  • 2 cups 

    semisweet chocolate chips

  • 2 Tbsp. 

    coconut oil


Instructions:

Melt chocolate chips and coconut oil over double boiler. Stir until chocolate is melted.

Dip individual rice crispie bars into chocolate and coat with sprinkles- then lay on parchment paper to cool/harden.
