Description
A delightful twist on a classic candy bar, these Healthy Homemade Butterfingers are made with wholesome ingredients and perfect for family gatherings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 and 3/4 cups cornflake cereal
- 1 cup chocolate chips (dairy-free, if needed)
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
Instructions
- In a saucepan over medium-low heat, warm the peanut butter, honey, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Stir continuously for 2 to 4 minutes until everything is heated through and smooth.
- Pour the smooth peanut butter mixture into a large mixing bowl filled with cornflake cereal. Stir everything together until well-combined.
- Now, form the mixture into logs, shaped just like the traditional Butterfingers. Lay them out on a parchment-lined plate or baking sheet.
- Place them in the freezer for 1 hour.
- After one hour, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil together in the microwave or on the stove.
- Dip each log fully into the melted chocolate, allowing the excess to drip off. Return to the parchment-lined plate.
- Place them back in the freezer until the chocolate has set, about 10 minutes.
Notes
These bars can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for about a week or in the freezer for up to a month.
