Indulge in Sweet and Salty Chocolate Tahini Rice Krispie Treats, a comforting blend of crispy rice, rich chocolate, and nutty tahini.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup Tahini
- 1/2 cup Pure Maple Syrup
- 1/4 cup Virgin Coconut Oil
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1/4 teaspoon Kosher Salt
- 3 cups Crispy Brown Rice Cereal
- 1 cup Pretzel Twists
- 1 cup Dark (or Semi-Sweet) Chocolate Chips
- 2 teaspoons Virgin Coconut Oil
- 1/4 cup Toasted Sesame Seeds
- 1 teaspoon Fancy Sea Salt
Instructions
- Prepare the Pan: Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal later.
- Melt the Base: In a medium pot, combine tahini, pure maple syrup, coconut oil, and kosher salt over medium-low heat. Stir frequently until smooth and warm, about 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat and mix in the vanilla.
- Combine Cereal: Gently stir in the crispy brown rice cereal until coated. Pour mixture into the prepared pan and press down firmly.
- Melt the Chocolate: In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until melted and smooth.
- Add Chocolate Layer: Pour the melted chocolate over the rice mixture in the pan, tilting to spread evenly.
- Top Off: Sprinkle the pretzel twists across the chocolate layer, pressing down slightly, followed by toasted sesame seeds.
- Chill Until Set: Place in the fridge until bars are cooled and chocolate is hardened, at least 1 hour.
- Slice and Store: Remove bars from the pan using parchment overhang, sprinkle with fancy sea salt, and cut into 16 bars.
