Ingredients
  

Puck Base
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 0.5 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 2 cups crushed cornflakes or crisp rice cereal
  • 0.25 cup optional: shredded coconut or flax seeds
Chocolate Coating
  • 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips or dark chocolate chunks
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil or butter
  • 0.5 tsp coarse sea salt flakes for topping

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Spatula
  • Muffin tin or silicone puck molds
  • Microwave-safe bowl
  • Parchment paper

Method
 

  1. In a medium bowl, stir together the peanut butter and honey (or maple syrup) until combined.
  2. Fold in the crushed cornflakes (and optional add-ins) until evenly coated.
  3. Press the mixture firmly into a muffin tin or puck molds, creating solid, thick disks. Chill for at least 1 hour to set completely.
  4. Carefully remove the set pucks from the molds.
  5. Melt the chocolate chips with the coconut oil (or butter) in the microwave in short bursts, stirring frequently, until smooth.
  6. Dip each puck completely into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off, and place on a parchment-lined sheet.
  7. Immediately sprinkle the top of each puck with sea salt flakes.
  8. Chill for 10-15 minutes or until the chocolate is fully set.

Notes

These are rich, large treats. Can be stored in the fridge for up to a week. For a different twist, try almond butter or biscoff spread.
