Store at room temperature, in the refrigerator or freezer.
You can swap these for dark chocolate chips or milk chocolate chips of course if you'd like. You can also melt your favorite chocolate bar too.
Add chopped peanuts on top of the peanut butter layer or sprinkle chopped nuts on top of the melted chocolate layer instead of sea salt.
Add a tablespoon coconut oil to the chocolate chips before melting to make it shine when it hardens.
