Description

Delightful and quick-to-make Strawberry Peanut Butter Chocolate Rice Cakes, combining the crunch of lightly salted rice cakes with sweet strawberry chia jam, creamy peanut butter, and a rich layer of melted chocolate. Finished with an optional sprinkle of flaky sea salt for a perfect sweet-salty balance, this no-bake snack is ideal for a light dessert or an energizing treat.

Ingredients

Rice Cakes Base

  • 6 rice cakes (lightly salted preferred)

Toppings

  • 1/2 cup strawberry chia jam
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter (any nut butter can be used)
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips, melted
  • Optional: flaky sea salt for garnish

Instructions

  1. Melt Chocolate: Place the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second intervals at full power. Stir well between intervals and continue heating only as needed until the chocolate is fully melted. Set it aside to slightly cool but remain pourable.
  2. Apply Strawberry Jam: Spread 1 to 2 tablespoons of strawberry chia jam or alternatively fresh sliced strawberries evenly over each rice cake to add a fruity layer.
  3. Prepare and Spread Peanut Butter: Warm the peanut butter in a microwave-safe bowl for 10-15 seconds to soften it, making it easier to spread. Then apply 1 to 2 tablespoons evenly over the strawberry jam layer on each rice cake.
  4. Top with Melted Chocolate: Evenly divide the melted chocolate atop each peanut butter-covered rice cake, gently spreading it to cover the surface completely.
  5. Add Flaky Sea Salt: Lightly sprinkle flaky sea salt over the chocolate layer to enhance flavor complexity (optional).
  6. Set the Toppings: Arrange the prepared rice cakes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Refrigerate for about 45 minutes or freeze for approximately 10 minutes until the chocolate topping sets firmly.

Notes

  • Use lightly salted rice cakes to balance the sweetness of toppings.
  • Peanut butter can be substituted with any preferred nut or seed butter.
  • Melting chocolate in short intervals prevents burning and ensures smooth texture.
  • Refrigerating or freezing helps the chocolate harden quickly for easier handling and eating.
  • Flaky sea salt is optional but recommended for a delightful sweet-salty contrast.
