You will need;
corn flakes
chocolate chips
nuts - whatever you wish
cup cake liners
a cutting board
two mixing bowls
a good chopping knife
a cookie sheet
a large mixing spoon
You can add all sorts of other ingredients to the corn flakes like marshmallows or pretzels. It's up to you & your tastes.
The amounts of ingredients are pretty loosey goosey. It really depends how much chocolate you want and how many treats you would like to make. I used 6 cups of cornflakes, 1 and a half bags of chocolate chips and 1 cup of chopped pecans.

Place the chocolate chips in a microwave safe dish. Heat on high for 60 seconds at a time until the chocolate is totally melted. It took me 4 minutes to melt my chocolate.
While you are waiting for the chocolate to melt, put the corn flakes in a large mixing bowl. You can also lay the cup cake liners on the cookie sheet.

Take the hot melted chocolate and pour it directly over the corn flakes, on top of the chocolate go the nuts. Mix until all the corn flakes are covered.
Finishing the Treats

Spoon the mixture into the cup cake liners as quickly as you can. The chocolate covered corn flakes are easiest to handle when the chocolate is warm.
Plate the treats on the cookie sheet and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes and you're done!
