Provided by á-10966

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1 cup peanut butter
6 cups Corn Flakes

Steps:

  • In a medium size saucepan, heat the corn syrup and sugar, on medium heat, until the sugar dissolves. Add peanut butter and stir until smooth. Gradually add corn flakes, 1 cup at a time, while mixing. Remove from heat, then spoon mixture onto wax paper, or aluminum foil, and let cool completely. **The official recipe calls for 6 cups of corn flakes, but you can use anywhere from 4-6 cups depending on how much you'd like to make and how crunchy or "gooey" you'd like your candy {use more cornflakes for more crunch}. For these pictures, we only used 4 cups of corn flakes, so keep that in mind when making yours.

This has been a longtime family favorite. Very easy to make and a great choice for peanut butter lovers. The lighter you press the mixture into the pan, the more tender the candy will be.

Number Of Ingredients 7

½ cup white sugar
½ cup brown sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1 cup peanut butter
6 cups cornflakes cereal
1 cup dry roasted peanuts
1 (11 ounce) package butterscotch chips

Steps:

Melt the butterscotch chips in the same microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 30 second intervals, stirring after each melting, for 1 to 3 minutes (depending on your microwave). Do not overheat or butterscotch will scorch. Spread over the cornflake mixture. Allow candy to cool, then cut into 1x2 inch bars.

Time 10m

Yield 24 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1 1/4 cups peanut butter
6 cups corn flakes

Steps:

  • Combine sugar and corn syrup in a dutch oven.
  • Bring to a boil.
  • Remove from heat.
  • Stir in peanut butter.
  • Add corn flakes and stir until all are coated with syrup mixture.
  • Drop by tablespoon onto waxed paper.
  • *you can add 1 tsp of vanilla for a slightly different flavor.
  • *or you can spread the mix out into a 13 x 9 dish and cut into squares.

Tips:

  • Use fresh corn flakes. Stale corn flakes will not hold their shape as well and will result in a candy that is less crispy.
  • Do not overcook the sugar mixture. The sugar mixture should reach a temperature of 260°F (127°C). If the sugar mixture is overcooked, it will become too thick and will be difficult to stir in the corn flakes.
  • Stir the corn flakes into the sugar mixture quickly. This will help to prevent the corn flakes from sticking together.
  • Spread the corn flake mixture out evenly on a greased baking sheet. This will help to ensure that the candy cooks evenly.
  • Bake the corn flake mixture for 10-12 minutes, or until the corn flakes are golden brown. Keep an eye on the candy while it is baking, as it can burn easily.
  • Let the corn flake candy cool completely before breaking it into pieces. This will help to prevent the candy from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Corn flake candy is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a candy that is crispy, sweet, and satisfying.
