Description

Strawberry rice crispy treats made with real strawberries, gooey marshmallows, and white chocolate. Dairy-free made with SunButter in place of butter, they are the perfect no-bake Valentine’s dessert or healthier sweet treat for any occasion!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 tbsp (65g) Creamy SunButter
  • 10oz bag (280g) mini marshmallows
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 5 cups (200g) crispy brown rice cereal
  • Optional: extra 1 cup (50g) mini marshmallows for stirring in
  • 2oz (56g) freeze dried strawberries
  • 1 cup (180g) dairy-free white chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Spray the inside of a large pot with avocado oil (or nonstick spray).
  2. Combine the SunButter and mini marshmallows in the pot over medium heat. Heat, stirring consistently until melted and smooth.
  3. Remove from the heat, and immediately stir in the vanilla.
  4. Add the cereal, and use a spatula to mix until evenly coated.
  5. Crush 1.5 ounces of the freeze dried strawberries, and stir in along with the extra mini marshmallows. 
  6. Press firmly into a 8×8″ pan lined with parchment paper (I like to use lightly greased hands, or place a piece of wax paper on top and use another pan to press).
  7. Set aside to cool for at least 1 hour until set.
  8. Lift out of the pan, and slice into 16 squares. 
  9. Melt the white chocolate chips. Blend the remaining 0.5 ounces freeze dried strawberries to a fine powder. Stir into the melted white chocolate.
  10. Partially dip each rice crispy treat in the strawberry white chocolate. Place on a pan lined with wax paper, and set aside (or briefly refrigerate) until the chocolate is set.
  11. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
