Cornflake Candy

 

Ingredients:

1 cup sugar

1 cup light corn syrup

1 cup creamy peanut butter

5–6 cups cornflake cereal

Instructions:

Prepare Ingredients: Measure out all ingredients and have them ready.

Melt Sugar and Corn Syrup: In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar and corn syrup. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture comes to a gentle boil and the sugar dissolves completely.

Add Peanut Butter: Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the peanut butter until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.

Add Cornflakes: Pour the mixture over the cornflake cereal in a large mixing bowl. Gently fold until all cornflakes are coated.

Form Clusters: Using a spoon, scoop the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, forming clusters. Let them cool and set.

Serve: Once cooled, the clusters can be served immediately or stored in an airtight container.

Optional Variations:

Chocolate Drizzle: Melt chocolate and drizzle over the clusters for added flavor.

Holiday Sprinkles: Add festive sprinkles before the clusters cool for a holiday touch.

These treats are sweet, crunchy, and great for holiday snacking!
