Ingredients

  • 1 cup honey
  • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 stick unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces, at room temperature
  • 1 large egg, at room temperature
  • 3 cups crispy brown rice cereal, such as Nature's Path Crispy Rice
  • 1 cup sweetened dried cranberries, coarsely chopped
  • 1/2 cup slivered almonds, toasted, coarsely chopped
  • One 4-ounce chocolate bar, finely grated

Directions

Line a baking sheet with wax paper. Set aside.

Whisk the honey, vanilla, butter and egg together in a 5-quart saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Stir in the rice cereal, cranberries and almonds until combined. Let the mixture cool for 45 minutes.

Place the grated chocolate in a small bowl.

Firmly press the rice mixture together into 36 balls, each about 1-inch in diameter, using slightly damp hands. Roll the cookies in the chocolate until coated and place on the prepared baking sheet. Refrigerate for 1 hour until firm.

    Easy & tasty! If you don't cook the egg/vanilla/honey/butter mixture at a high temp, the egg doesn't scramble. Have some patience with heating it up and it will cook up just like it should.

    Yummy! This treat is delicious. I made sure the egg and butter were in room temperature (left it out overnight, cause I was afraid the egg may start cooking like the other reviews mentioned. Everything turned out right, whisked everything together before cooking it. Fun and simple to make.

    I really dislike giving a poor review, but felt it was necessary since myself and kids thought it was awful. I followed the directions to the T, and had no problems with honey / eggg mixture combining. We also had no problem forming the cookie balls and rolling them in chocolate. The problem came when we tasted them. The taste of honey is so overpowering, that the other flavors are drowned out. I quickly had to chug water after biting into a honey coma of a cookie. Sad to say, because the recipe was fun, but the end result was inedible.
