Peanut butter cornflake squares


3 cups corn flakes, crushed
1 cup crunchy peanut butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup golden syrup
6 ounces chocolate chips
Directions:

1
Heat peanut butter, sugar and syrup syrup over low heat to melt. Stir in cereal.

2
Pat into a 8x8 lightly greased pan. (I line my pan with foil and then lightly spray it. When it is time to cut them, the foil lifts right out.).

3
Melt chocolate chips over low heat or in the microwave and spread over top. Cool until firm.

Now a healthy option, my favourite salad in the world.

Thai bok choi salad with peanut dressing.

1/4 cup natural smooth peanut butter (no added sugar or salt)
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice (from about 2 medium limes)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons packed dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons fish sauce
1 medium garlic clove, smashed
1 teaspoon chile-garlic paste
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
For the salad:
2 pounds baby bok choy
2 1/2 cups fresh small-dice pineapple (from about 1/2 medium pineapple)
2 medium carrots, peeled, halved lengthwise, then thinly sliced crosswise
1/2 medium English cucumber, quartered lengthwise, then thinly sliced crosswise
1 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 cup roasted, salted peanuts, coarsely chopped
2 medium scallions, thinly sliced (white and light green parts only)
INSTRUCTIONS
For the dressing:
Place all of the ingredients except the oil in a blender and blend on high until smooth. With the motor running, slowly stream in the oil until it is fully incorporated; set the dressing aside in the blender.
For the salad:

Cut the bok choy in half lengthwise, rinse it, and dry it. Cut the leaves crosswise into 1-inch-wide ribbons, cut the stalks crosswise into 1/4-inch pieces, and transfer both to a large bowl.
Add the remaining ingredients, drizzle with the dressing, and toss to combine. Serve immediately.

Ds loves peanut butter on (in?) celery with raisins or sultana's. I love peanut butter out of the jar in sandwiches with slices of banana. Yummy!!

I like to keep it simple. You can't beat a toasted bagel with butter and peanut butter. Yum!

[Theimpossiblegirl]

I warm crunchy peanut butter in a dish and use it to dip chicken satay. For the adults, I add some chilli but I keep it plain for the kids. If it's a bit thick, you can add a drop more oil.

[ArtisanLentilWeaver]

Ooh, I forgot that you could buy chips with peanut butter sauce on top in the Netherlands.

Either spread on a slice of malt loaf or in a chicken salad sandwich - I love PB.

Or straight from the jar :)

Peanut butter, chilli powder (or flakes), lime juice, fresh coriander and plain youghurt all mixed up - smallish amount as a dip or larger amount and add some soy sauce and hot water for a lovely sauce for pasta or noodles.

The best thing to do with peanut butter is put it in the bin . It is known as cat sick in our household as it bears such a striking resemblance to it!

[hairtwiddler]

I mix crunchy peanut butter with Dutch apple spread (or 100% apple and pear spread by Suma). It gives it a sweetness but not as sweet as jam. I spread on crispbreads. Often have it for breakfast.

[DaleyBump]

Solo, I was saying bloody hell because without even reading the thread I pretty much copied you word-for-word

[LegoAcupuncture]

I make peanut butter shortbread, cut it into fingers and dip it in melted dark chocolate. It is divine, don't make it too often though as I eat half of it before it is cooked because it goes pretty fast in this house of peanut butter lovers.

[BadlyWrittenPoem]

On celery. Or in a sandwich with sliced banana.

[debka]

Peanut butter squares.

250g bashed up digestives, 200g soft brown sugar, 150g melted butter, 300g crunchy peanut butter. Mix together well and press into a lined tin. Melt 200g chocolate and spread over the top. Hour in the fridge, cut up, try to share. Heaven.

White bread with peanut butter and slices of over-ripe banana. Eaten cold or heated in the sandwich toaster.

Plain flapjack smeared with a layer of raspberry jam and a layer of peanut butter.
