Ingredients

• 1/4 cup Barney Butter Crunchy Almond Butter
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1 cup rice crisp cereal
• 3 tablespoons organic brown rice syrup (honey might work, but I’m not sure how it will hold together)
• 1 tablespoon cacao nibs (or chopped chocolate)

Directions

1. Line a plate with parchment paper.
2. In a medium-sized bowl, stir together the Barney Butter Crunchy Almond Butter, brown rice syrup, and vanilla extract.
3. Microwave on high for 35-45 seconds. Stir well and immediately add in the rice crisp cereal and cacao nibs (or chopped chocolate). Stir very well until fully mixed.
4. Wet hands thoroughly and shape the mixture into ‘golf-balls’. Press mixture together firmly so it will hold. Wet hands after each one of the balls are formed so the mixture will not stick to your hands.
5. Place the balls onto parchment paper and freeze for 5 minutes. You can keep these chews in the freezer in a sealed container. I really enjoy them straight from the freezer. They remain nice and chewy.
