Cornflake Cookies

From Ang/JaJireh on SL. All notes are hers.

2 cups corn syrup
2 cups sugar

Bring these ingredients to a boil on in a heavy saucepan on the stovetop. When boiling, remove from heat and add:

2 tsp vanilla
2 cups peanut butter

Stir, melting the peanut butter. In a separate bowl, have

10 cups cornflakes

already poured. Pour the peanut butter cream mixture over top, stir quickly, pour into a 13x9 baking pan.

Allow to cool, cut into squares, steal two, then hide the pan.

At intervals, return to the hiding place, snag a morsel or two, cover.

When children arrive, allow them each ONE cookie bar, that you've set out on a plate, lest they learn the hiding place. When plate is empty, refill for tomorrow.

Meanwhile, continue sneaking until pan is completely gone, save tomorrows' snack for the young'uns.
