2. Place the pitted dates, butter and honey in a large saucepan over low-medium heat. 

3. Stir until the dates have broken down and the mixture has come to a simmer and thickened slightly. 

4. Be careful not to overcook or the mix will set too hard.

5. Add the rice bubbles and stir until thoroughly coated.
