Course Dessert
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 20 minutes
Servings 10

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.
