Ingredients
- 1 cup cottage cheese full-fat or low-fat, based on preference
- 1 ½ cups rice cereal such as Rice Krispies
- ¼ cup honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoon unsalted butter
- ½ cup mini chocolate chips optional
- 1 tablespoon chopped nuts optional for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the mixture: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Stir in the honey and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Add cottage cheese: Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the cottage cheese until well incorporated.
- Combine with cereal: In a large mixing bowl, add the rice cereal. Pour the cottage cheese mixture over the cereal and gently fold to combine, making sure the cereal is evenly coated.
- Form the treats: Once combined, transfer the mixture to a greased 9x9-inch square baking dish or line it with parchment paper. Press the mixture into the dish, making it even and compact.
- Chill: Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the treats to set.
- Serve: Once chilled, cut into squares or bars. Optionally, sprinkle mini chocolate chips or chopped nuts on top for extra flavor and texture.
Notes
- If you want a sweeter treat, you can drizzle some melted chocolate over the top once the treats have chilled.
- For a different flavor profile, try adding cinnamon or cocoa powder to the mixture.
- You can substitute rice cereal with other cereals like puffed quinoa or oats for variation.
- These treats can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- You can add dried fruits like raisins or cranberries for additional flavor and texture.
