Ingredients

  • 1 cup crisp rice cereal e.g. Rice Krispies; approx. 28g (formerly "rice bubbles"
  • cup pistachios roughly chopped, not too small; approx. 40g shelled
  • ½ cup dried cranberries approx. 57g
  • ¼ cup coconut flakes large unsweetened flakes; approx. 15g
  • 8.8 oz dark chocolate chopped or in chips; approx. 250g
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil melted; approx. 28g

Instructions

  • Line a loaf pan (about 9 x 4 inches / 23 x 7 cm) with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the rice cereal, pistachios, dried cranberries, and half the coconut flakes. Set aside.

  • Pour the chocolate mixture over the dry ingredients and stir well until everything is coated.
  • Transfer the mixture to the prepared loaf pan. Press down gently into an even layer, then sprinkle the remaining coconut flakes over the top.
