Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients:
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 6 cups cornflake cereal
Instructions
- In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar and corn syrup. Stir constantly and bring just to a boil, then immediately remove from heat.
Stir in the peanut butter and vanilla extract until smooth and fully combined. Gently fold in the cornflakes, stirring until all the cereal is evenly coated. Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop portions onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, shaping gently into mounds. Let cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or until set.
Notes
- Work quickly when mixing and shaping the cookies, as the mixture will firm up as it cools.
- For a touch of chocolate, drizzle melted chocolate over the top or add mini chocolate chips while shaping.
