Ingredients

Servings
  • 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 butter unsalted
  • ½ cup mini chocolate chips optional
  • 1 tablespoon nuts optional for garnish, chopped

Instructions

  1. 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.
  2. Add cottage cheese: Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the cottage cheese until well incorporated.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. Chill: Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the treats to set.
  6. 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.
