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

  1. 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.
  2. Pour the smooth peanut butter mixture into a large mixing bowl filled with cornflake cereal. Stir everything together until well-combined.
  3. Now, form the mixture into logs, shaped just like the traditional Butterfingers. Lay them out on a parchment-lined plate or baking sheet.
  4. Place them in the freezer for 1 hour.
  5. After one hour, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil together in the microwave or on the stove.
  6. Dip each log fully into the melted chocolate, allowing the excess to drip off. Return to the parchment-lined plate.
  7. 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.
