Let’s dive into this sweet and simple recipe!
| Preparation Time | 15-20 minutes |
| Cooking Time | 10-15 minutes |
| Total Time | 85-135 minutes |
| Level of Difficulty | Easy |
Ingredients
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup corn syrup
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 teaspoons vanilla essence
- 6 cups corn flakes
- 1/4 cup festive sprinkles
Step 1: Prepare the Baking Sheets
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Set these aside for later use.
Step 2: Make the Peanut Butter Mixture
In a large saucepan, combine the white sugar, corn syrup, and peanut butter over medium heat.
Stir constantly until the mixture comes to a boil.
Once boiling, continue to cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
Step 3: Incorporate Cornflakes
After the peanut butter mixture has boiled for 2 minutes, remove the saucepan from the heat.
Quickly stir in the cornflakes until they are fully coated with the peanut butter mixture.
Step 4: Portion Out the Cookies
Using a cookie scoop, portion out the cornflake mixture into 2-3 tablespoon-sized cookies onto the prepared baking sheets.
Work quickly as the mixture will start to set and harden fairly fast.
Step 5: Garnish and Set
After all the cookies are portioned out, garnish them with Christmas sprinkles.
Allow the cookies to set for 1-2 hours before storing or serving.
