In a saucepan over low heat, melt the butter with honey, canola oil, and dark chocolate. Stir until smooth.
Remove from heat, then add the oats, sunflower seeds, walnuts, cocoa powder, and beaten egg. Mix until fully combined.
Press mixture firmly into a parchment-lined 8x8 inch pan. Chill for 15 minutes.
In a bowl, cream the butter until light. Add maple syrup and custard powder. Beat until smooth and fluffy.
Spread evenly over the chilled base. Return to the fridge for 20 minutes.
Sprinkle the finely chopped chocolate evenly on top of the middle layer
