Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine peanut butter, honey, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Stir until smooth and well blended, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Gently fold in corn flakes into the peanut butter mixture until evenly coated.
  3. Shape the mixture into bars, about 1 inch thick, and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  4. Freeze the bars for about 1 hour or until firm.
  5. Melt dark chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a microwave or double boiler until smooth.
  6. Dip each frozen bar into the melted chocolate, ensuring they are fully coated, and return to the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  7. Freeze the coated bars for another 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to harden.
