Steps:
- Mix the maple syrup, peanut butter, cocoa powder, vanilla and salt in a pot on low heat until well combined, then add the rice crispies. Quickly transfer the mixture into a rectangular or square pan lined with parchment paper and put the pan in the freezer.
- While the crispy mixture chills, make the fudge topping by melting together the chocolate chips, peanut butter and coconut oil on low-medium heat.
- After about a dozen minutes, pour the chocolate mixture onto your crispy mixture and put back in the freezer to chill until hard - about 45 minutes. It will harden more with time.
- Once well chilled, cut into 18 or so pieces. If the pieces are harder than you`d like, store them in the fridge afterwards, or keep them out a few minutes before eating.
