    Tips for Making No-Bake Chocolate Clusters

    • Dry the blueberries completely before using in the recipe. Water will cause the melted chocolate to seize.
    • To omit any hint of coconut, use refined coconut oil.
    • Use your favorite kind of dairy-free chocolate chips. Semi-sweet and dark chocolate both taste great!

        Thank you! I love using Erewhon brand brown rice cereal. Exactly, just like Rice Krispies but with brown rice.
