The following recipe was submitted by Diane from Pennsylvania.
Four of the five children who taste tested these cookies loved them and wanted to eat more. Paulina is not a peanut butter fan and did not like them for that reason. Hubby and I loved them, and I ate so many I felt sick for an hour afterwards. I couldn’t find Karo syrup, so I substituted golden corn syrup and they came out great! Thanks Diane!
Ingredients
1 cup white sugar
1 cup Karo
6 cups corn flakes
1 cup peanut butter
1 tsp. vanilla
Instructions
Combine sugar and karo. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
Add peanut butter & vanilla and stir until a creamy mixture.
Add corn flakes and gently stir until well coated.
Drop spoonfuls onto wax paper or a cookie sheet to cool.
Quick & easy recipe. Great for when you don’t want to heat up your kitchen with the oven.
