These do not last long in my house.....very addictive! Also, simple and goes wonderful on cookie trays for Christmas or other holiday trays. My friend Sara, from high school, would make these and bring them to share. I was the biggest pig and gobbled them all up.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2/3 c sugar
2/3 c light corn syrup
1 1/2 c creamy peanut butter
3 c crushed corn flakes
2 c semi sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • 1. Crush cornflakes to equal 3 cups (about 2/3 of 12 oz box of cereal). Set aside. Grease 9 inch square pan lightly.
  • 2. Add sugar and corn syrup to medium sauce pan and bring to a boil. Remove from heat.
  • 3. Add peanut butter and stir.
  • 4. Add cereal to sugar & peanut butter mixture and mix well. Spread into greased pan.
  • 5. Melt chocolate chips in microwave on medium power stirring every minute until melted. Spread over cooled cereal mixture. Allow chocolate to set. Cut into small pieces and enjoy.I found it easier to wait until candy has cooled and take whole thing out of pan and cut with a large knife.

These peanut butter cups were a disaster! The chocolate seized up and the peanut butter filling was too thick. I ended up throwing the whole batch away.

I thought these peanut butter cups were just okay. The chocolate was a bit too sweet for my taste, and the peanut butter filling was a little too runny.

I've made these peanut butter cups several times now, and they're always a hit. They're so easy to make and they taste delicious.

OMG, these are so good! I can't believe how easy they were to make. I'm definitely going to be making these again and again.

These peanut butter cups were amazing! I used dark chocolate and a little sea salt on top, and they were the perfect balance of sweet and salty. I'll definitely be making these again.
