Ingredients
Method
Grease and line the base and sides of a19cm x 29cm rectangular slice pan, bringing paper 3cm above the long sides. Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan-forced).
Place the cornflakes in a large bowl.
Combine the butter, sugar and salt flakes in a medium pan, cook, stirring, over medium heat until butter is melted. Simmer, stirring, for 2 minutes or until sugar has dissolved and mixture has thickened slightly.
Immediately pour mixture onto the cornflakes and stir to coat; spread into prepared pan. Bake for 15 minutes or until deep golden brown. Cool in the pan then refrigerate for 30 minutes to firm up.
Remove the base from the pan. Spread chocolate evenly over the surface and sprinkle with a few extra salt flakes. Refrigerate until chocolate is set.
Using a large hot knife, cut into 8 pieces to serve.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Test Kitchen tip
Cornflake slice variations
Serve it without the chocolate topping, or switch up the flavours and make a white chocolate version the kids will love! Substitute the dark chocolate for white and swap the salt flakes for crushed candy canes.
