Ingredients

  • 1 cup peanut butter (or any nut/seed butter)
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 + 1/4 cup corn flakes (plain or frosted)
  • 1/4 cup peanuts
  • 1 + 1/2 cups chocolate chips (can be dairy free)
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1 pinch sea salt

Instructions

  • Add peanut butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt to a large bowl. Mix and set aside.
  • Add corn flakes and peanuts to a blender or food processor and pulse a few times until crumbly. (See instructions above for another method)
  • Once blended, add the peanuts/cornflakes to the peanut butter mixture and stir until you reach a dough-like consistency.
  • Line a tray or plate with parchment paper.
  • Roll the dough into balls and form into bar shapes. Place each bar on the tray. Place in the freezer for about an hour.
  • Make chocolate coating by melting chocolate chips and coconut oil in the microwave for 30 seconds, stir, and repeat until fully melted.
  • Remove the bars from the freezer and dip each one in the melted chocolate.
  • Set back in the freezer for 30min-1hr to harden. Enjoy!
