For a more elaborate use, it can be chopped and sprinkled over ice cream or yogurt.

Some bakers incorporate small pieces into cookie dough for added texture and sweetness.

How to keep the rest
To maintain its quality, store any remaining chocolate in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and strong odors. Ensure the packaging is sealed to prevent the chocolate from drying out or absorbing unwanted flavors. Proper storage helps preserve the crispness of the rice and the smooth texture of the chocolate.
