No Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter and Corn Flakes Bars
Happy Friday y'all!
How is summer treating you? Any summer plans? Going to the beach? Cabin? Or are you working all through summer?
Whatever the case, I feel like Fridays deserve peanut butter and chocolate! I mean, can you think of a better combination?
AND, I feel like summer days deserve no bake treats. What do you say? Are you ready for one of the easiest desserts you will make this summer?
These no bake bars were gone faster than I would like to admit. Hiding them in the back of the fridge didn't even work! For a couple of days, you could find me right by the open refrigerator door. Stealing bite after bite of these cute little bars.
I used Corn Flakes inside, but you could easily replace it with Rice Krispies, or your own favorite cereal. My suggestion would be to make sure it's not an overly sugary cereal: these bars are sweet enough as is.
These no bake chocolate peanut butter corn flakes bars are so easy to make, I have been making them on repeat lately. Especially since it has been way too hot to turn on the oven to bake something lately.
Another great recipe that I have been making that is similar to this one is my Skor Corn Flake Bars. When I run out of chocolate chips, I turn to Skor chips. They are both so good and so easy, you really have no excuse NOT to make them. Especially on a hot day like today!

Sound really tasty!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you!
Wow. No bake bars? I didn't even know about these little gems. They sound so good! I can't wait to try your chocolate peanut butter cornflake bars!
You must try it! It's so good 🙂
These look so moist and sound really tasty too, No bake bars are great for a quick treat for the kids. Yum!
Agree! Thanks Caroline
These look so good! A quick question: should you crush the corn flakes before adding? Or do they kind of dissolve from the hot mixture? I need to try this very soon!
It depends on what texture you want!! I crush them, but you don't need to if you like a crunchier texture.
I am drooling over here! These sound just incredible and i can't wait to try them. #weekendgoals!
Yay! Let me know if you give them a go!
These look so good and great for kids to do too. I could eat one now.
So good!! 🙂
Our summer plans were all cancelled this year -how about your's?
But, now that Ive seen these - my new summer plans include these delectable bars in them!
Our summer plans are cancelled too unfortunately. This is definitely the plan these days 😉
how much butter do you put in? salted or unsalted? or am i blind?
So sorry. No butter!! I think I added peanut butter twice and forgot to erase the entire word. Thanks for catching that, just fixed it in the instructions!!
Peanut butter and chocolate is EVERYTHING. I make something like this but with Rice Krispies - I am definitely going to try Corn Flakes this time!
