Homemade Chocolate with Peanuts and Rice Krispies(GF, Vg)

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup cacao butter (you can sub coconut oil here, but you will need to store the chocoate in the freezer as it will melt very easily)

1. Melt cacao butter by placing a small bowl carefully in a slightly larger bowl of hot water (or use a double boiler)
2. In a food processor or blender, add melted cacao butter, cacao powder, peanut butter and salt (you can mix this by hand but be sure to remove all the cacao powder lumps)
3. Stir through puffed rice, coconut and peanuts
4. Line a small, shallow tray with baking paper and pour out the chocolate mixture evenly
5. Place the tray in the freezer for 15 minutes to set
