Deliciously chewy Peanut Butter Cornflake Bars combine creamy peanut butter and sweet corn syrup with crunchy cornflakes for a simple, no-bake treat perfect for snacks or dessert.

Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 11/2 cups creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup light corn syrup

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 6 cups cornflakes

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pan: Spray a 9×13 inch baking pan lightly with vegetable oil spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Heat Mixture: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine peanut butter, light corn syrup, and sugar. Stir continuously until the sugar has just dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
  3. Combine with Cornflakes: Remove the saucepan from heat and pour the peanut butter mixture into a large bowl containing the cornflakes. Gently fold the mixture together to evenly coat the cornflakes without crushing them.
  4. Form Bars: Transfer the mixture into the prepared pan and gently press it down evenly and firmly to create a compact layer.
  5. Cool and Slice: Allow the mixture to cool completely at room temperature until set. Once cooled, slice into bars of your desired size for serving.

Notes

  • You can substitute creamy peanut butter with natural peanut butter, but the bars may be a bit less firm.
  • Add-ins like chocolate chips or chopped nuts can be mixed in for extra texture and flavor.
  • Store bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
  • For a lower sugar version, consider using a sugar substitute and light corn syrup alternative, adjusting sweetness to taste.
