- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 packet powdered gelatin (2 ¼ teaspoons)
- 2 ½ cups brown rice crisp cereal
Chocolate topping:

Instructions
- Line an 8x8” baking pan with parchment paper and lightly spray it with cooking spray. Set aside.

- Add the rice cereal and mix until everything is evenly coated and combined.
- Transfer the rice mixture into the prepared pan, pressing into an even layer.
- In a small bowl or glass measuring cup, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Heat in the microwave in 15-20 second intervals, stirring each time, until the chocolate chips are almost completely melted. Give it a good stir until smooth.
- Spoon or pour the melted chocolate over the top of the rice mixture. Spread it into an even layer with the back of a spoon.
- Transfer the rice squares into the fridge and allow to cool for at least a couple hours until the chocolate has hardened again.
