Description

These no-bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Cornflake Cookies are a quick and easy treat combining the creamy richness of peanut butter with the crunch of cornflakes and a drizzle of smooth melted chocolate. Perfect for a speedy snack or dessert that requires minimal ingredients and no oven baking.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup corn syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 cups cornflakes
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a large saucepan, combine peanut butter, sugar, and corn syrup over medium heat. Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and the sugar has fully dissolved, which takes about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Add Vanilla: Remove the pan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract thoroughly to incorporate the fragrance into the mixture.
  3. Mix with Cornflakes: Gently fold in the cornflakes, carefully coating each flake with the peanut butter mixture without crushing them.
  4. Form Cookies: Using a spoon, drop portions of the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, shaping each into a cluster resembling a cookie.
  5. Cool and Set: Allow the cookie clusters to cool and set at room temperature for about 30 minutes to firm up before decorating.
  6. Melt Chocolate: While the cookies cool, melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl by heating in 20-second intervals and stirring between until fully melted and smooth.
  7. Drizzle Chocolate: Drizzle the melted chocolate over the surface of the cooled cookies to add a decorative and flavorful topping.
  8. Final Setting: Let the chocolate set for another 10-15 minutes until firm before serving your delicious no-bake cookies.

Notes

  • Use creamy peanut butter for the best texture and coating ability.
  • Be gentle when folding in cornflakes to maintain their crunch.
  • Chocolate drizzle can be substituted with melted white chocolate or left off for a simpler cookie.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
  • These cookies do not require baking, making them quick and easy to prepare.
