If you loved Rice Krispies Treats as a kid, or even as an adult, you must make this recipe. We’ve swapped out the traditional gooey marshmallows and replaced them with a combo of tahini and honey. Then, we smothered the top in a chocolate-tahini ganache. They’re sweet, crunchy, chocolaty, nutty and so good that you will be making them again and again (and again!).
ingredients
directions
Place a large pot on the stove over medium-low heat.
Melt the butter in the pot, then pour in the honey and ⅔ cup tahini . Mix to combine.
Add in the puffed rice and stir so that the rice is fully coated in the tahini-honey mixture.

Butter a 6×10-inch baking dish and line with parchment paper.
Pour the puffed rice into the baking dish and flatten it with the back of a spatula or using the bottom of a cup.
Put the dish in the freezer for 5 minutes to harden while you make the chocolate tahini topping.
Place a small pot over medium-low heat. Add in the chocolate chips, the rest of the tahini and a pinch of salt. Continue to stir until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
Take the treats out of the freezer, drizzle the chocolate on top, use a spatula or a spoon to spread out evenly, then top with sesame seeds.
Place back in the freezer for 25-30 minutes for the chocolate to set.
Once the chocolate is hard, remove from the freezer, slice into squares and store in an airtight container in the fridge.
