Vegan Peanut Butter Chocolate Cereal Treats!

• 1 cup corn syrup or 1 cup brown rice syrup
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 cup peanut butter
• 12 teaspoon vanilla, if desired
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, vegan varieties are fairly easy to find
• 6 cups puffed rice cereal or 6 cups corn flakes

1. Combine sugar, vanilla and corn/brown rice syrup in a pot, stir over medium heat until the mixture is just beginning to boil.
2. Remove from heat, stir in peanut butter, followed by cereal.
3. The mixture will get quite dense, but if you use any less cereal the bars will turn out quite chewy.
4. Spread the mixture out onto a baking pan.
5. Melt chocolate using a double boiler or microwave and spread evenly over top.
6. Refrigerate until set.
7. (when chocolate has hardened, about an hour or two).
