For a richer flavor, use dark cocoa powder. Add a pinch of salt to the chocolate mixture to enhance the sweetness. If you don't have brown sugar, you can substitute it with granulated sugar. The flavour would be slightly different. For a softer square, use slightly less butter. Try adding some chopped nuts or dried fruit to the cereal mixture for extra texture and flavor.

Dec 24, 2024These are a perfect no-bake treat! I brought them to a potluck, and everyone raved about them. I'll definitely be making these again!

Dec 9, 2024I've been making these for years! They are a great alternative to rice crispy treats and are much healthier. I usually double the batch because they disappear so quickly.

May 11, 2024My squares turned out a little too hard. Next time, I'll try using a little less brown sugar and butter, as suggested in the tips.
