So these snack bars are actually BOMB. I was inspired by my Healthy Peanut Butter Rice Crispy Treats. You HAVE to try them!

All you need are a few ingredients for this Coconut Chocolate Peanut Butter Snack Bars recipe. You don’t even need an oven!

Puffed Millet (or brown rice)
Unsweetened Coconut Flakes
Cocoa Powder
Peanut Butter
Honey
Brown Rice Syrup

They are rather simple to make as well. You pretty much mix everything together in a bowl, press the mixture into a baking sheet, freeze it, and drizzle some chocolate pb sauce on top with a little sprinkle of more coconut.

I started off using the finger method and then transferred to using my spatula. It was much easier to get things evened out!

Ingredients

Scale

5 cups puffed millet
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter + 2 tablespoons divided(I used All-Natural Jiff)
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup brown rice syrup
1/3 cup dried coconut flakes
3 tablespoons vegan chocolate chips

Instructions

First, line a cake pan with parchment paper, set aside.
Next, in a medium size bowl, melt peanut butter. Then, add in honey and brown rice syrup and mix.
In a large bowl, mix together 5 cups of puffed millet and ¼ cup of cocoa powder. Then, add in peanut butter mixture and mix, making sure the puffs are thoroughly coated. Finally, add in dried coconut flakes, and mix again.
Evenly spread mixture onto cake pan, and use a spatula or your fingers to press puffs into the pan. If you use your fingers, you may need to get your hands wet!
Place pan into freezer for about 20 minutes. Then remove and slice.
While the bars are in the freezer, prepare peanut butter chocolate sauce. Melt about 3 tablespoons of vegan chocolate chips and mix with 2 tablespoons of peanut butter.
