Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Peanut Butter
  • 1/2 cup Honey
  • 1 tsp Vanilla
  • 4 cups Cornflakes
  • 1.5 cups Chocolate chips or 180 gms chopped Chocolate

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, mix together peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • In a large bowl, gently crush the corn flakes with your hands.
  • Pour the peanut butter mixture over the cornflakes and stir until well coated.
  • Line a square pan with parchment paper. Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the pan.
  • Melt the chopped chocolate or chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler.
  • Pour the melted chocolate over the cornflake layer and spread evenly.
  • Refrigerate for 1–2 hours, or until set.
  • Once firm, remove from the pan and cut into squares. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Notes

  • For best results, use creamy peanut butter. If using natural peanut butter, make sure it’s well-stirred and not too runny.
  • Lightly crushing the corn flakes helps the bars stick together better and gives a denser texture.
  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
  • To make ahead for parties or gifting, wrap individual bars in parchment paper and keep chilled until ready to serve.
  • Cutting Tip: Use a sharp knife to cut into 8 bars for a more filling portion, or 16 small squares for bite-sized treats.
  • Serving tip: These are best served as a snack or treat rather than breakfast. Ideal for school snacks, afternoon cravings, or mini dessert squares.
