Place a medium saucepan over medium heat and melt the butter.
Add the peanut butter, corn syrup, brown sugar, and salt to the saucepan. Stir continuously until everything is melted and smooth.
Stir in the corn flakes, 1/4 cup of peanuts, and vanilla until just mixed together.
Spoon the mixture into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
In a heatproof bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water (or in a microwave), gently heat the chocolate until it is just melted.
Spread the melted chocolate over the top of the mixture in the pan.
Sprinkle the remaining chopped peanuts on top of the chocolate.
Place the pan in the refrigerator and let it chill until it becomes firm, approximately 2 hours (refer to notes for more details).
