Cornflake Cookies
Cornflake cookies. Have you heard of these? My Mom made these cookies all the time when I was growing up and they were always one of my favorites. The irresistible crunchiness of the cereal in them is incredibly appealing to a kid, but when I recently tested a batch and served them…
Honey Peanut Cereal Bars
