Ingredient notes:
- Cornflakes: The namesake ingredient! Any brand of the simple cereal will work in this recipe.
- Brown sugar: This helps to give the toffee a more caramelised flavour, compared to white sugar.
- Coconut: I'm going to nip this in the bud before I'm asked. For those that don't like coconut, feel free to substitute it for an extra ½ cup of oats and an extra ½ cup of cornflakes.

Step by step instructions:
Preheat the oven to 170°C fan bake. Line a 17 x 27 cm slice tin with baking paper. In a saucepan, add the butter, honey and brown sugar. Cook on low heat, stirring until melted and combined.
Bring to a bubble then remove from the heat. Add the coconut, rolled oats and cornflakes to the saucepan. Stir together to combine.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared tin and spread it out evenly to the edges.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until golden but still soft to the touch. It will continue to harden when cooling.
Allow to cool completely in the tin before slicing into pieces. Store in an airtight container in the pantry for up to 5 days.
