Throwing it back with this Honey’d Cornflake Chocolate Slice this week because we are all in the need for some deliciousness correct? Do you remember those honey cornflake cups called honey joys?? Instantly remind me of my childhood because we lived of these beauties! Well I say “lived” off them but we didn’t really, but we did have many of them throughout our running around the sandpit days.
Time for an upgrade? I think yes! Introducing chocolate to honey joys is just too good to be true but I kid you not, these taste a-maz-zing! *insert love heart eyes emoji here* and transformed into a slice, absolute beauty! I don’t need to say it but you already know that I’ve been snacking on this all week long because really what else is there to do when you have a unbelievably scrumptious honey cornflake chocolate slice in your fridge? Well least that’s what I’m doing!
Let’s get into the nitty gritty details. The base is pretty simple, under 10 ingredients, one bowl, bake and you good! Let that base take a chill session out on your counter and when it’s decided to cool the hell down, you can go ahead and pour that amazeballs chocolate icing over that bad boy. It’s getting real here isn’t it…. because as I said, this cornflake slice is addicting! Let that inner child of yours out, let it loose as a goose! But keep that slice for yourself, or you will.never.see.it.again!
