These No Bake Peanut Butter Bars with Chocolate Ganache and Peanut Butter Swirl are the ultimate sweet treats. Not only super simple and easy to make, they are also Flourless Candy Bars made with No Eggs, No Oven and 5 ingredients only!!
Line a rectangular baking tray (1) with baking paper and set aside (2).
Place the Cornflakes in your food processor and blend for 1 to 2 minutes to get small crumbs (3).
In a separate bowl, melt together the Unsalted Butter and Peanut Butter. Whisk in the Icing Sugar, then add the Cornflakes. Stir until combined.
Pour the mixture in the baking pan and evenly spread - it will be relatively liquid and should spread easily.
Tap the bottom of the pan a few times against a hard surface to remove any air bubbles then Place in the fridge to set for 1 to 1,5 hours, or until hard.
Chocolate Layer
When the peanut butter layer has set, start preparing the chocolate layer. Thinly chop the Cooking Chocolate and place in a heat-proof bowl. Melt on a double boiler until smooth (4).
Pour the melted chocolate over the peanut butter layer and use an offset spatula to spread it evenly.
Drop small dollops of peanut butter over the melted chocolate, then use a skewer (or knife) to mix the chocolate and peanut butter together and create a swirl pattern.
Place back in the fridge to set for 1 to 1,5 hours, or until the chocolate has hardened. Keep refrigerated.
Notes
I used a 20x30cm (8x12inch) brownie pan - you can use a square pan too, the layers will just have a different thickness.
To make sure the baking paper does not move, grease the pan with some oil to use as a 'glue'. I also cut the baking paper into a cross shape to keep clean edges.
Make sure you do not blend the cornflakes so much that it turns into a powder - you still want small crumbs to create a crunchy texture. If the cornflakes are not blended enough though, it will be hard to slice the bars.
You can also melt the chocolate in the microwave, but be careful not to burn it. To do so, stop every 30 seconds to stir until a few unmelted bits are left. Leave the rest to melt at room temperature with the residual heat.
