Ingredients

• 6 pieces Rice cakes
• 200 grams Dark chocolate
• 1 tablespoon Coconut oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt (optional)
• 0.25 cup Chopped nuts or sprinkles (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Choose a clean and dry working surface for preparing the rice cakes. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

Step 2

Break the dark chocolate into small pieces and place them in a heatproof bowl.

Step 3

In a small saucepan, add about 2 inches of water and bring it to a simmer over medium heat.

Step 4

Place the bowl of chocolate over the saucepan, ensuring the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. This creates a double boiler.

Step 5

Add the coconut oil to the bowl with the chocolate.

Step 6

Stir the chocolate and coconut oil until they are completely melted and smooth. Remove the bowl from heat.

Step 7

Take one rice cake and, using a spoon or small spatula, gently spread a layer of melted chocolate over one side.

Step 8

Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over the chocolate-covered side of the rice cake if desired.

Step 9

Optional: Add chopped nuts or sprinkles on top of the chocolate layer for extra texture and flavor.

Step 10

Place the chocolate-covered rice cake onto the prepared baking sheet with the chocolate side facing up.

Step 11

Repeat steps 7 to 10 for each rice cake.

Step 12

Once all rice cakes are covered, allow them to cool at room temperature for about 20 minutes or refrigerate them for 10 minutes until the chocolate sets.

Step 13

Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
