Prep 15 min · Cook 3 min · Total 8 hr 33 min · Makes 8 treats
Ingredients
- 1 /2 cup of white chocolate, divided use
- 1/ 2 cup of applesauce and 1/2 tablespoon of applesauce
- 1 1/2 cups puffed or organic crispy rice cereal
- 1 cup of cashew or peanut butter
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
Directions
- Line up 8 cupcake liners and set them nearby. In a microwave-safe bowl, warm 1/4 cup of the white chocolate with 1/2 tablespoon applesauce and 1/2 cup nut butter until melted, then stir until smooth. Fold 1 cup cereal through the melted mixture, spoon it into the liners, and refrigerate for fifteen minutes.
- Melt the 1/2 cup applesauce together with the nut butter. Spoon half of that melted mixture over the chilled, partially filled cups, then scatter the rest of the puffed rice cereal over the tops.
- Microwave the remaining 1/4 cup white chocolate until melted. Stir it into the nut butter mixture that is left, then smooth it over the filled liners. Refrigerate overnight, and store the treats chilled so they hold their shape.
