- If desired, use semisweet or milk chocolate instead of dark chocolate.
- Kellogg rice krispie cereal is not gluten free. I recommend using The Real Cereal Company's brown rice cereal.
- Use all natural creamy peanut butter. Feel free to use almond butter or cashew butter if desired.
- Chill in the fridge until the chocolate has completely hardened.
- Store leftovers in the fridge or freezer for up to a month.
