  • Yield: About 12 servings

– 4 tablespoons of room-temperature salted butter

– Β½ cup packed brown sugar

– ΒΌ cup light corn syrup

– 3 cups of cornflakes

– Β½ cup of semisweet chocolate chips for drizzling

3-Next, pour this warm sugar mixture over the 3 cups of cornflakes in a large heat-safe bowl and stir quickly to coat them evenly this step is crucial for that signature texture.

4-Spread the coated cornflakes onto your prepared baking sheet and pop it into the oven to bake for 30 minutes, watching to ensure it gets nice and crisp without burning.

5-After baking, let the brittle cool completely on the sheet before moving on.

6-Melting and Drizzling the Chocolate: For the finishing touch, melt the Β½ cup of semisweet chocolate chips at 50% power in 30-second intervals in the microwave, stirring between each one until smooth.

Notes

πŸ”₯ Boil the sugar mixture until it reaches 300Β°F to prevent graininess and achieve the perfect brittle texture.

πŸ§‚ Optional: Sprinkle flaky sea salt on top for an extra burst of flavor.
