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!

Hi Cathleen, love everything about these bars, peanut butter and chocolate is a match made in heaven.
The chocolate and peanut butter is enough to make me want to dive into these. But then you put corn flakes in there! And I died a little bit. In a good way. A very good way.
No bake treats are essential during the summer!
I had a very busy weekend.. No doubt I deserve these bars 😀
I would hide these too! Looks so easy to make!
I'm with you ... these yummy no bake chocolate + peanut butter + cornflake bars are very addictive 😀
I adore nobake treats...fast, easy and delicious. Love the add of cornflakes here.
No bakes are a great idea for the summer. Your bars look very chocolatey and very unusual with the cornflake addition!
Yum! These look so good, and so neat! 😀
I love no bake treats in the summer and these look absolutely delicious!
These are so fun! Love the texture of the corn flakes 🙂
What delicious little bars those look like! love that they are no-bake, perfect for the summer 🙂
Yes, it's absolutely the taste of madness. I'm a big fan of peanuts and peanut butter is my favourite spread ever! Having a couple of apples topped with it is my favourite snack EVER! Gotta make your chocolate piece of heaven soon!
Corn flakes were my favorite cereal growing up. How neat to see a bar using them instead of rice krispies. These look scrumptious. Can't beat that chocolate - peanut butter combo!
Such an amazing dessert. So clever!
