5. Line an 8×8 baking dish with parchment paper. Spoon the cereal mixture into the lined baking dish.
6. Bake for 15 minutes uncovered.
7. Remove from the oven and add your dairy free chocolate chips or your carob chips on top. Put back in the oven for 2 minutes or until melted.
8. Remove from the oven and spread the melted chocolate or carob over the squares until thoroughly covered.
9. Cool completely before cutting into squares. Store in the fridge for up to 4 days. Remove from the fridge 15 minutes prior to serving.
