Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup butter vegan butter alternate
  • 3/4 cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs alternate: vegan gluten free graham crackers, I use Kinnikinnick S'moreables Gluten Free Graham Crackers
  • 1/2 cup corn flakes
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 cup chocolate dark vegan chocolate or non vegan chocolate chips
  • milk non dairy vegan alternative
  • finishing salt

Instructions
 

  • In a small pot over medium heat, place the butter, and melt it. Then add in the peanut butter and the sugar and stir everything well until it's all melted together.
  • In a large bowl, place your graham cracker crumbs and corn flakes.
  • Remove the butter/peanut butter/sugar mixture from the heat and stir in the vanilla.
  • Pour the entire contents over the graham crackers and corn flakes. Stir well to combine.
  • Press the mixture into an 8"x8" pan, then place in the refrigerator for at least an hour to set.
  • Melt the chocolate over a double boiler. Once the chocolate is melted, add a little milk, a few tablespoons at a time, until it gets to a pourable consistency. (this is the tricky part--I can't give you real measurements here, you have to kinda wing it). Pour the chocolate over the peanut butter base and sprinkle the whole thing with a pinch or two of finishing salt. Place in the fridge to set.
  • Cut into 12-16 squares.
  • This bar tastes great frozen. Store in the freezer and pull one out 5 minutes before eating.
