Ingredients

THE BASE:

1 cup organic Sunbutter sunflower seed butter
⅔ cup maple syrup
3 tbsp melted coconut oil
½ cup arrowroot powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ tsp salt
¾ cup puffed gluten-free brown rice cereal (I used One Degree Organics) maple syrup

THE CHOCOLATE TOP:

¾ cup dairy free chocolate chips (I used Enjoy Life Foods)
1 tbsp coconut oil

Instructions

Line an 8 x 5 pan with parchment paper. I highly recommend coating the pan with oil, so that the parchment paper sticks.
Next, in a medium bowl, mix together all of the dough ingredients (the puffed rice cereal being last), and press the dough into the baking pan using a spatula to flatten.
Place the pan in the refrigerator and make the chocolate topping.
Melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil in the microwave in 30 second increments. Sure, you can do this over the stove, but using the microwave here is a huge timesaver.
Take the pan out of the fridge and pour the chocolate mixture on top
Place it back in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
Cut into squares and enjoy!!
Store in the refrigerator for up to one week. Enjoy!
