Miso Chocolate Peanut Butter Cornflake Bars

Instructions

1. Line a 9 x 9-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
2. Heat the coconut oil in a large saucepan over medium-low heat until melted. Add peanut butter, honey, miso paste, vanilla extract, and stir steadily for 2 minutes or until lightly warmed. Remove from heat and stir in the cornflakes until they are evenly coated with the peanut butter sauce. Transfer the cornflake mixture to the prepared pan and use a silicone spatula (or the flat bottom of a glass or a measuring cup) to press the mixture down firmly and evenly until it is very compact.
3. Heat the chocolate chips in a double boiler (or in the microwave in 10-second intervals) until completely melted, being careful not to overcook and burn the chocolate. Immediately spread the melted chocolate in an even layer over the cornflake mixture, using a spoon to create pretty swirls if you’d like.
4. Refrigerate the bars for 2 to 3 hours or until firm.
5. Serve. When you’re ready to serve the bars, carefully lift up the parchment and transfer the entire batch to a cutting board. Use a chef’s knife to carefully cut the bars into squares. Serve immediately and enjoy!
