Holiday Recipes - Crispy Rice Treats

Ingredients:
1/4 C natural almond butter
1/2 C honey
2 tbsp. chocolate chips
1/4 C chopped walnuts
1 C brown rice crisps

 

In a medium-size mixing bowl, mix together the almond butter and honey. Add the chocolate chips, chopped walnuts and rice crispies Mix gently until the crispies are well coated. Cover a large plate or container with wax paper. To make the balls - dip hands in a bowl of water and form the mixture into walnut-sized balls. Refrigerate to chill.

Variations: Spread the mixture out in a pan and use a fun or festive-shaped cookie cutter. Decorate if desired. Another fun idea is to oil a muffin tin and shape the mixture into the individual muffin cups. Chill. When ready to serve, remove and fill the cups with your favorite frozen non-dairy ice cream. Stick in a candle for fun birthday cups and decorate if desired. You can even fill these cups with your favorite puddings.

Yields: 14 crispy rice treats
