Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Cornflakes
- 10 ounces Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 cups Mini marshmallows
- 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
In a large heatproof bowl, combine semi-sweet chocolate chips and unsalted butter.
Melt the chocolate chips and butter together by placing the bowl over a pot of simmering water, making sure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Stir occasionally until the mixture is smooth.
Stir in the mini marshmallows until melted and completely blended with the chocolate-butter mixture.
Remove the bowl from heat and stir in the pure vanilla extract and salt.
Gently fold in the cornflakes, ensuring they are evenly coated with the chocolate mixture.
Using a tablespoon, scoop clusters of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
Refrigerate the cornflake clusters for about 30 minutes or until they are set and firm.
Once set, remove from the refrigerator. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
