Crispy Rice and Coconut Chocolate Cups - Kim's Welcoming Kitchen



These Crispy Rice and Coconut Chocolate Cups are fantastic! They are crunchy and chocolaty with just a hint of toasted coconut goodness.  They make a great addition to a holiday cookie plate or a wonderful treat for any time of year.

Crispy Rice and Coconut Chocolate Cups (vegan, gluten-free, soy-free, dairy-free, nut-free)
Makes 18 candies 

Ingredients:
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
  • 1 1/2 cups Rice Flake cereal (or crisp rice cereal)

  1. In a dry pan over medium heat, lightly toast coconut flakes until lightly golden and fragrant (a minute or two).
  2. Mix coconut with cereal.
  3. In a small pot, melt chocolate chips over medium heat, stirring continuously until halfway melted. Turn off heat and continue stirring until chocolate is completely melted.  
  4. Mix cereal mixture into chocolate. Stir to coat.

Happy Cooking!

  2. Great news about the cereal! I've only been dealing with food allergies for 4 years, and even in that time span there are SO many more options. I bet it's much different than 10 years ago for sure!

  3. I can't even tell you, Kathryn! When Casey was first diagnosed, I just looked at the grocery store shelves in dismay, but now there are tons of options!
