Call For Help: Do You Have Recent Issues of Vegetarian Times?

A couple months ago I cut a recipe out of the magazine Vegetarian Times for what were essentially a vegan version of Rice Krispy treats. I made the recipe for some friends, they loved them, I planned to make them again and stashed the recipe. Now it's time to make them again and the recipe has dissappeared from the face of the earth. The Vegetarian Times website doesn't have the recipe online (their website sucks as a whole actually), my library doesn't subscribe to vegetarian times and here I sit with all the ingredients (almond butter, brown rice syrup, vegan chocolate chips, brown rice cereal) and no recollection of quantities, etc. I don't recall exactly which issue of the magazine the recipe came from but it was definitely this fall so I'd say probably the September or October issue. Naturally the recipe wasn't called "Vegan Rice Krispy Treats" but was instead Crispy Rice Squares or something like that. I've listed the bulk, in fact maybe all, of the ingredients above so if you have the back issues it shouldn't be too terribly hard to figure out which one it is. I would be incredibly grateful to anyone who could find and send this recipe to me in the next day or so. I'm hoping to make these for a party this weekend but if I can't find the recipe I need to start looking for an alternate recipe.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Michelle

is this what you were looking for?


Chocolate Crispies

Vegetarian Times Issue: October 1, 2007 p.34

Almond butter not only holds these Rice Krispie Treat–like squares together, it also gives them a decadently rich, nutty flavor. Natural peanut butter
and cashew butter also work well.

Ingredient List

Makes 16 pieces

1/2 cup almond butter
3/4 cup brown rice syrup or honey
1/2 cup vegan chocolate chips
3 cups crispy brown rice cereal


Directions

1. Coat 9-x 9-inch square baking pan with cooking spray. Place almond butter, brown rice syrup, and chocolate chips in large saucepan over
medium heat. Cook 4 minutes, stirring constantly, or until ingredients are melted together. Remove from heat, and stir in cereal. Press
mixture into baking pan, and cool 15 minutes. Dip sharp knife in water, and slice into squares.
