Honey Joys
Ingredients:
90g (about 1/3 cup) butter
1/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon honey
4 cups cornflakes
Optional: 1/4 tsp vanilla extract or a pinch of salt
Optional toppings: sprinkles, shredded coconut, or chopped nuts
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 150°C (300°F). Line a muffin tin with paper cupcake cases.
Melt the mixture:
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter, sugar, and honey, stirring constantly until the mixture is frothy and just starting to bubble (about 3–5 minutes).
Remove from heat. Add vanilla or a pinch of salt if using.
Mix with cornflakes:
Place cornflakes in a large mixing bowl.
Pour the hot honey mixture over them and stir gently until all flakes are coated evenly.
Spoon into cases:
Spoon the coated cornflakes into the prepared cupcake cases, pressing down slightly so they hold together.
Optional: Add sprinkles or other toppings before baking.
Bake:
Bake for 10 minutes or until golden.
Cool and set:
Allow to cool completely in the tin. They will firm up as they cool and become deliciously crunchy.
Storage:
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days—if they last that long!
