You could try confectioners’ sugar with cornstarch or a little maple sugar for a slightly different flavor.Butter: Melted unsalted butter adds richness and helps bind the mixture.If you prefer, salted butter can be used; just reduce the extra salt in the mix.
Rice Krispies: Classic Rice Krispies cereal provides crunch, but you could also try puffed rice or crispy oat cereal for a variation.Chocolate Chips: Semi-sweet chocolate chips make a perfect coating.Milk chocolate, dark chocolate, or even a chocolate-peanut butter mix would be delicious.
