Healthy Butterfingers
Ingredients
- 3.5 cups corn flakes
- 1/3 cup maple syrup or honey or agave as substitutes
- 1 cup creamy all-natural salted peanut butter
- 1 cup dairy-free or regular chocolate chips melted
Instructions
- Crush the cornflakes until they’re broken into small pieces, either in a ziplock bag or a large bowl with a smaller bowl.
- In a small bowl, thoroughly mix the maple syrup and peanut butter until combined.
- Add the peanut butter mixture to the crushed cornflakes and mix until well incorporated.
- Shape the mixture into candy bar shapes, or any desired shape, and place them on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Freeze for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, melt the chocolate on the stovetop or in the microwave. If using the microwave, add 1/2 tablespoon of coconut oil and heat in 30-second increments, stirring well between each round.
- Dip each piece into the melted chocolate, coating them evenly, then return them to the parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Freeze for an additional 10 minutes before enjoying!
Notes
- Crush the cornflakes until they’re broken into small pieces, but not into a fine powder.
- Combine the peanut butter and maple syrup thoroughly before adding them to the cornflakes.
- Freeze the Butterfingers first before coating them in chocolate to prevent them from falling apart.
- Once the chocolate coating has hardened completely, store these treats in the fridge for a convenient grab-and-go snack.
