Notes
*Vegan chocolate. It's best to use a high-quality good tasting vegan chocolate bar (roughly chopped). You can also use vegan chocolate chips but make sure you use a brand that you know will melt down and re-set well.
*Puffed rice cereal. Rice krispies may not be technically vegan in some countries because of the way their Vitamin D is sourced, but you can certainly use an alternative brand of puffed rice cereal. If you're gluten-free then make sure you use a gluten-free brand of puffed rice cereal.
*Storing and freezing. These bars store very well in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks. They are also freezer friendly for up to 3 months.
