Ingredients

  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • ½ cup honey
  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • 3 cups cornflakes

Instructions

  • Start by lining a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides.
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and unsalted butter. Heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until completely melted and smooth.
  • Once the chocolate and butter mixture is melted, stir in the creamy peanut butter and honey. Mix until well combined and creamy.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add the cornflakes. Pour the chocolate-peanut butter mixture over the cornflakes and gently fold them together until all the cornflakes are coated evenly.
  • Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking pan. Use the spatula to press it down firmly and evenly.
  • Place the pan in the refrigerator and let it chill for at least 2 hours, or until the bars are firm to the touch.
  • Once set, lift the bars out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Cut them into squares or rectangles.
