Ingredients
- 3 plain rice cakes
- 3 tablespoons peanut butter
- 2 ounces dark chocolate
- Pinch of flaky sea salt
Instructions
- Spread Peanut Butter: Spread a tablespoon of peanut butter evenly on each plain rice cake to create a creamy base.
- Melt Chocolate: Place dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second increments, stirring after each, until fully melted. This usually takes between 45 seconds and 1 minute 30 seconds.
- Stir Chocolate: Stir the chocolate thoroughly to ensure it is smooth and completely melted without lumps.
- Add Sea Salt: Sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt over the melted chocolate to enhance the flavor with a slight savory touch.
- Set Chocolate: Allow the chocolate-topped rice cakes to harden by letting them rest at room temperature for 30 minutes or refrigerate for 10 to 15 minutes before serving for a quicker set.
Notes
- Use high-quality dark chocolate (around 70% cocoa) for a richer flavor.
- Flaky sea salt adds texture and enhances the sweetness of the chocolate.
- Rice cakes can be substituted with gluten-free options if desired.
- The snack can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
- Adjust the amount of peanut butter and chocolate according to taste preference.
