Cornflake Cookies
Cornflake Cookies are chewy, crunchy no-bake treats made with creamy peanut butter and a sweet syrup. They need just six pantry ingredients and no oven.
Ingredients
- ½ cup sugar
- ½ cup light corn syrup
- ½ cup peanut butter
- ½ teaspoon vanilla
- 4 cups cornflakes
- ½ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Add the cornflakes to a medium bowl and set aside.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar and the corn syrup. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat, then add the peanut butter, vanilla and salt and stir until blended.
- Pour the mixture over the cornflakes and stir until all the cornflakes are coated.
- Drop by rounded tablespoons (I used a medium cookie scoop) onto wax paper.
- Let sit at room temperature for 30 to 40 minutes.
Notes
Watch the boil: Take the pan off the heat as soon as the syrup boils. Cooking it longer makes the cookies hard.
Work quickly: Scoop the cookies right away, before the coating starts to set.
Let them set: Give them 30 to 40 minutes at room temperature to firm up.
Storage: Keep them in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 to 4 days.
