Vegan/Gluten-Free Cacao Rice Crisp Treats

Start by melting your butter in a large saucepan or pot on medium-low heat. Add in marshmallows and stir constantly. Keep the heat low enough so that they don’t burn. Once the marshmallows begin to melt, they will clump up together. Add your softened coconut oil and mix, mix, mix! Once you have 90% melted mallows, turn the heat off and slowly add in the crisps. Add 3 cups, mix. Add another 3 cups, mix. And wait until the very end to add the last half cup – you might not need it, depending on how you like the consistency of your treats. Once the mallows cooled down a bit, you may find it easier to really mix the crisps and mallows together by HAND versus a wooden spoon. Work the mixture until they’re incorporated and add to any baking dish. Press the mixture down to settle into the dish. Now, melt your chocolate (you can do it in the microwave with some coconut oil in 30-second increments) and drizzle over the treats. After letting the chocolate settle, cut them into squares. Let them cool for another 30ish minutes and enjoy! These are great left on the counter wrapped up for days.
