Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup light corn syrup (or honey)
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 6 cups cornflake cereal
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • pinch of salt (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In a medium saucepan over medium heat, stir the granulated sugar and light corn syrup until the sugar dissolves and the mixture reaches a gentle simmer.
  • Remove the pan from heat and immediately stir in the peanut butter and vanilla extract until smooth and glossy.
  • Gently fold in the cornflakes until all flakes are evenly coated. If using salt, add a small pinch now and fold again.
  • Working quickly, drop spoonfuls (or use a cookie scoop) of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, shaping into cookies.
  • Let the cookies cool and set at room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.
