How to Prepare Chocolate Crunch Bars [Vegan]

Line an 8 x 8–inch (20 x 20–cm) pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang so you can easily remove the bars.
Place the cereal and chia seeds in a large mixing bowl and set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, gently melt together the peanut butter, maple syrup, coconut oil and vanilla on 50 percent power for about 15 seconds, and then stir until smooth. Pour the mixture into the bowl with the cereal and use a large wooden spoon or rubber spatula to stir until all of the cereal is well coated. Press the mixture into the bottom of the pan and pack it down tightly. Place the pan in the refrigerator and chill for 30 minutes.
Remove the pan from the refrigerator, use the parchment-paper handles to remove the block of bars from the pan and cut them into 10 evenly sized bars. Place them in the freezer while you melt the chocolate.
