Ingredients
Scale
- 6 tablespoons (85g) unsalted butter
- 10 ounces (283g) mini marshmallows
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 6 cups (150g) Rice Krispies cereal
- 1 cup (75g) shredded coconut
- 1/2 cup (70g) chopped toasted almonds
- 1 1/2 cups (270g) chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
Instructions
- Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or line it with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a large saucepan, melt 6 tablespoons (85g) of unsalted butter over medium heat. Once melted, add 10 ounces (283g) of mini marshmallows and stir continuously until fully melted and smooth.
- Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 6 cups (150g) of Rice Krispies cereal with 1 cup (75g) of shredded coconut and 1/2 cup (70g) of chopped toasted almonds. Mix well.
- Pour the melted marshmallow mixture over the dry ingredients and stir quickly to coat everything evenly. Work fast before the mixture sets!
- Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, pressing it down gently with a spatula or your hands (wet your hands lightly to prevent sticking!).
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 1 1/2 cups (270g) of chocolate chips with 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in 30-second intervals, stirring after each. Once smooth, pour the melted chocolate over the Krispie mixture and spread evenly.
- Sprinkle additional shredded coconut and chopped almonds on top for decoration, if desired.
- Refrigerate for 30 minutes or until the chocolate sets. Once firm, cut into squares or bars and enjoy!
