Bonžita (Cornflake and Chocolate Bars)
The shop-bought “Bonžita” bar became famous long ago for its taste and its low calorie count. As for the taste of our home-made bonžita, you will certainly have no complaints; as for the calories, well, let's say it is still one of the lightest cakes to come out of a home kitchen.

Preparation

1
Over low heat, stirring often, melt the margarine and the sugar. This takes about 10 minutes.

Tip: Melt the margarine and sugar together, over low heat. There is no need to caramelize the sugar first.

Meanwhile, chop the walnuts finely.

Spread the mixture in a greased tin and level it with a spatula or a wide knife.
Tip: It is a good idea to compact the mixture at the very end by tapping the surface with the back of a spoon or a meat mallet. That way your bonžita will not be too airy.
Serving

Leave the bonžita to cool, then cut it into squares or bars. Alternatively, don't put the mixture in a tin at all: shape it into balls and serve them in paper cases.
Tip: Whichever shape you choose, let the bonžita rest for at least 12 hours before serving: it is much tastier once the cornflakes have softened.
