Method
 

How to Make Honey Butter Rice Cakes
  1. In a large bowl, combine the cooked white rice, softened butter, honey, vanilla extract, salt, and cinnamon. Stir until the rice is evenly coated and a sticky mixture forms.
  2. Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper. Transfer your rice mixture into the dish and firmly press it down to create an even layer.
  3. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm up.
  4. Once chilled, lift the rice cake out using the parchment paper, then slice it into squares or rectangles.
  5. Before serving, sprinkle with your choice of chopped nuts or seeds for an extra crunch.
