Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 6 cups cornflakes
- 1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
- 1 cup honey
- Optional: 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- In a large saucepan, gently heat the peanut butter, honey, and a pinch of salt over medium heat until the mixture is smooth and well-combined. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
- Place the cornflakes in a large mixing bowl. Pour the warm peanut butter mixture over the cornflakes. Gently fold together until the cornflakes are evenly coated.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the sheet to form small clusters. If the mixture is sticky, lightly grease your hands with cooking oil or butter to make handling easier.
- If using chocolate chips, sprinkle them over the clusters while they're still warm. Alternatively, drizzle melted chocolate over the formed clusters for an extra touch of sweetness.
- Refrigerate the clusters for at least 30 minutes to set. Once chilled and firm, they are ready to serve.
