Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 bars (standard size, approximately 51g each) Mars bars
- 100 grams Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Golden syrup
- 4 cups Cornflakes
- 150 grams Milk chocolate
Instructions
Grease and line an 8-inch square baking tin with parchment paper, ensuring the edges hang over the sides for easy removal later.
Cut the Mars bars into small pieces and place them in a large heatproof bowl along with the unsalted butter and golden syrup.
Set the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (making sure the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water) and gently stir the mixture until the Mars bars, butter, and syrup melt together into a smooth and glossy consistency.
Remove the bowl from the heat and quickly fold in the cornflakes using a spatula or large spoon, ensuring they are evenly coated in the melted mixture.
Transfer the coated cornflakes into the prepared baking tin and press them down firmly with the back of a spoon to create an even layer.
Melt the milk chocolate in a separate heatproof bowl using the same method as before, or by microwaving in 20-second intervals, stirring after each, until fully melted.
Pour the melted milk chocolate over the cornflake mixture in the tin, spreading it out evenly with a spatula or the back of a spoon.
Chill the tin in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or until the chocolate is fully set.
Once set, remove the pan from the refrigerator and lift the treat out using the overhanging parchment paper. Cut into 12 equal squares and serve.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to 5 days.
