Real Carbs Rice/Shake Time Crispy Rice Squares
If you knew Rich Piana, you know he loved cocoa-flavored crispy rice cereal. In fact, he used to mix it up as part of his Real Carbs post-workout shake. That’s why we made Real Carbs Rice in the first place - it features the stunning Cocoa Heaven flavor and it’s a tribute to the cocoa crispy rice cereals Rich loved so much. With that in mind, here’s a delectably delicious recipe - Real Carbs Rice/Shake Time Crispy Rice Squares! They not only taste like cocoa crispies, but we also used peanut butter in this recipe. What could be better than that? You won’t believe how delicious they are and how easy they are to make!
