Chocolate Brown Rice Crispy Treat – Glam Radar

chocolate-brown-rice-crispy-treat-1
I have a sick little bunny today. The first thing she asked me when the doctor had a look at her throat was, “When can I have chocolate again?” This is a very good question and totally logical being that she is my daughter. Her second question was, “How many days do I get off school?” Oh to be five again.

I made her these brown rice crispy treats and added raw cacao for her chocolate addiction. I used cashew butter and brown rice syrup to hold them together. I came across the recipe a while back onSprouted Kitchen but the first time I made the recipe it didn’t stick together as well as I would have liked so I added a little extra but it could be because I never measure.

I cut them into wedges and served them on her favourite pink plate with warm goat milk. She will be home for the next few days and I have been meaning to refine my miso soup recipe so this may be the perfect opportunity. She loves miso soup.
