- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/8 tsp salt

Instructions

- Remove the pot from heat. Stir in the vanilla extract and salt. Then, stir in the corn flakes. You don’t have to be careful with the corn flakes; let them crush a bit while mixing together.
- Transfer the mixture to the loaf pan. firmly pressing it against the bottom of the pan. Chill in the freezer for 1 hour to set. After, remove from the freezer and slice into 8 bars.
- In a bowl, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Carefully dip the bars into the melted chocolate, transferring them to parchment paper. Return to the freezer for 10 minutes or until the chocolate sets. Enjoy!
