No Bake Corn Flake Chocolate Bars

Postby OldUsedParts » Wed Aug 31, 2016 6:29 pm

Just received this from my oldest Step Son and I am going to try them very soon.

Ingredients:
5 C corn flakes
1 C Ghiradelli chocolate morsels, semi-sweet (next time I’ll use dark chocolate)
1 C Butterscotch morsels
½ C Peanut butter, creamy (next time I’ll use a crunchy, natural PB)
Directions:
Melt chips & peanut butter
Mix with corn flakes
Press into sprayed pan (I just smear a small amount of butter with paper towel on bottom and sides of glass baking dish)
Cool in refrigerator for a couple of hours

- Cut and serve

If you have to store them for any period of time – do it in the refrigerator also.
It’s that simple. The hardest part is melting the morsels and PB correctly. If they are overheated – they taste bad.
It is recommended to melt in microwave as follows:
Heat on 50% power for 1 min – stir
Heat on 50% power for 15 sec increments, stirring after each increment
When there are only a few lumps left – just stir and the heat of the other heated mix will melt the lumps

I'm not big on health bars, but they sound good.

I just finished making my first batch of this and it's pretty decent and easy to fix- - - next time I think I'll drop the butterscotch morsels and replace them with more chocolate. I also used milk chocolate because the War Dept doesn't like semi sweet but next ones will be with semi sweet and crunchy peanut butter instead of creamy. This is a very "CRUNCHY TREAT".

Melting the ingredients together went real well and it wasn't as messy of a job as I thought it was gonna be. I used a 7"x7" microwave bowl to melt and mix, put the corn flakes in a large 9"x13" baking dish, mixed in the melted stuff and then transferred it to a sprayed 8"x8" baking dish. Packed it down a much as I could and into the frig for 2 hours. It took a serrated knife to cut/saw the squares into removal pieced but it went well.
