No Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars

Printed from: www.grandmotherskitchen.net

Ingredients

Makes: 9x9 inch pan

1 1/2 cups chocolate chips, we used Camino 71% organic bittersweet chocolate chips

1 cup creamy peanut butter, use a natural one for best flavors

1/2 cup unpasteurized honey

1/4 cup butter

4 cups cornflakes, we used Natures Path organic fruit juice corn flakes that are sweetened with pear juice

Directions

1. Line a 9x9 inch square baking dish with parchment paper.

2. You need to melt the first 4 ingredients together.

3. We used the stove-top method, combining the chocolate chips, peanut butter, butter and honey into an oven proof dish submersed in a deep large skillet that has about 2 inches of water.

4. You simply bring the water to a boil, then you can shut it off or just have it very low while you melt and stir the ingredients into a smooth creamy texture.

5. Remove the chocolate mixture from the skillet with water, place on the countertop and continue to stir a bit more to fully combine the ingredients.

6. Add the cornflakes, folding and stirring in with a spatula and wooden spoon until all the cornflakes are evenly coated.

7. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and place into the refrigerator 2-4 hours until nice and firm for cutting.

8. Remove onto a cutting board and cut into pieces.

9. Place the cut pieces and place into a container that has a fitting lid.

10. Put parchment paper between the rows of cut pieces to keep them from sticking together.

11. You can refrigerate for 2 weeks or you can freeze for up to 2 months.

12. These bars need to be served cold as they will soften too much when left at room temperature.

ENJOY!
