Corn Flake Cookies
I can’t quite place where I used to eat these no-bake peanut butter cornflake cookies as a kid. I think it must have been one of the room mothers at school.
These days, I’m the mom who makes them all the time!
My kids love the delicious peanut butter flavor and the chewy goodness of these easy Corn Flake cookies.
I can’t get over how fast I can whip up a batch of these easy drop cookies. It’s really so easy, but the resulting cookie is totally addictive.
I usually turn to my trusty Corn Flake cookies recipe whenever I find out I need to take a dessert to an event at the last minute.
It’s funny how often I’m asked if I could donate a dessert the day before an event at church or school!
I like to oblige whenever I can, and I’ve often made these yummy no bake cookies on those occasions.

My mother used to make a cookie similar to this back in the 1950s or 1960s. I remember helping her make a shortbread crust which got baked, then melting butterscotch morsels over the crust and spreading this cornflake mixture over it. Do you happen to have a recipe for this? It was printed in the Sunday Parade magazine as I recall. Thanks.
They’re great when you throw them in the freezer once a harden up.
They are delicious, easy and so Awesone, thank you
Hi! I have dark Karo syrup and honey in my pantry. Which one would you recommend as a replacement for the light syrup?? Thank you! Can’t wait to make these!!
Just in case anyone else is wondering this same question…I only had dark corn syrup as well and they came out just as good as when I’ve used light corn syrup!
Super easy, and super good! A little too good, perhaps… I can’t seem to stop eating them. I had to put them up in the cabinet so they wouldn’t tempt me every time I walked in the kitchen.
Rachel, I totally know what you mean! These bad boys are GOOD! Glad you loved them and thanks so much for leaving a review. :)
