More tips for making these easy s’mores rice cakes:
- Use any flavor you desire for this idea. I have a peanut butter protein powder that also would be tasty. I know there is even a marshmallow-flavored protein powder that’s super popular!
- I think the best texture is to leave them in the freezer for just an hour or so or let them thaw out a bit if onlinepletely frozen, until a little soft.
- Instead of rice cakes, you can use graham crackers. Check out the fun Graham cracker protein s’mores we posted last month!
- I forgot to add some sea salt flakes to the top, but I bet that’d be delish!
My whole family loves this simple rice cake treat!
My daughter is loving all the fun TikTok-inspired rice cake treats people are making using various flavors and toppings. She takes a peanut butter and jelly one to school sometimes. My go-to used to be the sea salt variety with peanut butter and chocolate chips, but this one may just take the top spot for me!
