2 cups oat flour Acts as a base for the cookie dough layer

3 tablespoons salted butter At room temperature, helps create a smooth texture

12 ounces semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips Luscious topping that makes these bars irresistible

In a large mixing bowl, combine the organic corn flakes and brown rice krispies. Stir until well combined.
In a separate bowl, mix 2/3 cup creamy peanut butter, 1/3 cup honey, and 1/3 cup maple syrup until smooth. Pour over the cereal mixture and fold gently until evenly coated.
Transfer the mixture into a greased 9x13-inch baking pan. Press down firmly and evenly with a spatula or hands to form the base layer.

In another mixing bowl, combine 2 cups oat flour, 1/2 cup cashew butter, 1/4 cup honey, 3 tablespoons salted butter (room temperature), 1 tablespoon vanilla extract, and 1/3 cup mini chocolate chips. Mix until soft cookie dough consistency forms.
Spread the cookie dough mixture evenly over the peanut butter base. Press down gently to ensure it sticks well.

Melt 12 ounces chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
Pour the melted chocolate over the cookie dough layer and spread evenly.
If desired, sprinkle sea salt over the melted chocolate for extra flavor.
Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until the chocolate has set completely.
Remove the bars from the pan and cut them into squares. Serve chilled or at room temperature and enjoy!

Press the base layer firmly to prevent the bars from crumbling.
Melt chocolate slowly to avoid overheating and grainy texture.
Chill bars thoroughly to ensure proper setting before slicing.
Substitute honey with agave syrup for a vegan version.
Add nuts or dried fruits to the cookie dough layer for extra flavor and texture.
