  • Total Time: 2 hours 25 minutes
  • Yield: 16 servings

Ingredients

– 1/2 cup vegan butter for the caramel

– 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut cream for the caramel

– 1 cup light brown sugar for the caramel

– 1/2 teaspoon sea salt for the caramel

– 1/4 cup vegan butter for the Rice Krispie base

– 10 ounces vegan marshmallows for the Rice Krispie base

– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract for the Rice Krispie base

– 5 cups Rice Krispie cereal for the Rice Krispie base

– 8 ounces vegan dark chocolate for the chocolate topping

– 1/3 cup unsweetened coconut cream for the chocolate topping

Instructions

1-Getting started with this recipe: First, melt the vegan butter in a saucepan and stir in the brown sugar, coconut cream, and sea salt, then simmer for 5 minutes before refrigerating until cooled. Line a 9ร—9-inch baking dish with parchment paper to keep things neat.

2-Next, for the base: melt the vegan butter in a pot, add the marshmallows and vanilla extract, and stir until everything melts smoothly. Fold in the Rice Krispie cereal and press the mixture firmly into the prepared dish for a solid base. Pour the cooled caramel over the base and refrigerate until it sets firmly, which helps avoid any seepage.

3-Then, for the topping: heat the coconut cream until it simmers, pour it over the dark chocolate, and stir until smooth to create a glossy layer. Pour this over the set caramel layer and refrigerate until hardened for that perfect finish. Remember tips like lightly wetting the spatula if the mixture sticks, and use a knife warmed in boiling water for clean cuts when serving.
