Puffed Rice Rocky Road Brownies

June 9, 2017 by theorganicspoon 1 Comment

I wanted to make some yummy treats for my friend who has just had a baby, because breastfeeding mamas need fuel (and chocolate!) and I decided to try and make a healthier version of Rocky Roads. Daniel used to make the yummiest Rocky Roads whenever we had people over back in the days when we…
