peanut butter

coconut oil

Line an 8&#215;8 inch baking dish with parchment paper and set aside.

Pour the crispy rice cereal into a large mixing bowl.

In a separate bowl, mix the chocolate chips, peanut butter and coconut oil together. Microwave for 2-3 minutes or until the chocolate melts. Check frequently to ensure the chocolate doesn&#8217;t burn.

Refrigerate for 2-3 hours or until the candy bars are set. Cut the bars into even squares and serve immediately.
