Tips & Substitutions
For a smoother consistency, melt the almond bark in short intervals to prevent burning, and stir frequently. If you prefer a different nut flavor, feel free to substitute pecans with walnuts or almonds. You can also add a sprinkle of sea salt for a contrasting flavor. This recipe can be made gluten-free by ensuring the rice krispies are certified gluten-free.
Serving Suggestions

Storage & Reheating
Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. If you want to keep them longer, refrigerate the container for up to two weeks. For best results, allow them to come to room temperature before serving, as this enhances the texture and flavor.
