{ cornflake candy } recipe

I've got a little recipe for all you peanut butter lovers! 
These peanut butter cornflake bars are chewy and not too sweet!
And, with only a few ingredients, it's nearly impossible to mess it up!
Even the kids can help!


Cornflake Candy

Ingredients:    
1 cup of sugar
                                  1 cup of light corn syrup (Karo brand)
                      1 cup of creamy peanut butter
     7 cups cornflakes

Start by measuring out your cornflakes. Set them aside

Mix sugar and light corn syrup in a large sauce pan over medium heat.

Make sure you keep mixing. The sugar will burn if you don't!

Boil sugar mixture until sugar had dissolved completely. Remove from heat

End product should be clear like so... 

Add peanut butter and mix well 


Add cornflakes to the peanut butter mixture, half cup at a time. I like
to just shake a little in the pot, mix, and repeat.

Make sure all of the cornflakes are coated. As it cools, it will harden.
So try to mix quickly and thoroughly 

Spoon mixture into a baking dish or onto a cookie sheet
lined with wax paper and press it flat to your desired thickness.

Let your Cornflake candy cool.
Cut into squares.

And eat!!
