These were great. However, I used 1/2 corn flakes and 1/2 rice crispies (because I was low). I also DID NOT put coconut in them. Everyone at work loved these and they were gone quickly! Perfect chewy texture!

Reading all the great reviews on this one I was expecting some delicious cookies, but unfortunately I was disappointed :( I thought they were waay too sweet, even tho I used unsweetened coconut the sugar just seemed to overpower all of the other flavors. The cookies came out very chewy (which I like) but too hard even tho I didn't over bake at all. My boyfriend liked them, but then again, he would eat sugar out of the jar if he could. Probably won't make again.

These are fantastic. Followed the recipe to a T. I halved the recipe and still got an ice cream pail full of cookies. Thumbs up from my 5 and 3 year olds and the hubby!

Took these cookies to a get together and everyone loved them. I usually worry about baking having a baking soda flavor when there is nothing for it to react with but these were great. No baking soda taste.

My cookies tasted awesome...but they spread and flattened really bad. I figured out this was because my butter was not completely softened before I used it...I have since made another batch with very softened butter, and didn't have that problem...Also, I used Rice Krispies instead of Cornflakes. I can't stop eating these cookies!!!

Very yummy! And chewy! I followed the recipe exactly except I added vanilla and didn't have quite enough choc chips - but they still turned out wonderful! I especially like how they flatten (I'm a fan of soft flat cookies) I'll be making these again!

These are great, and the batch is huge! I like to freeze half the batch for later. They thaw quite nicely! The cereal makes them nice and crunchy too, but I make sure to crush the flakes a little. Large flakes can make these hard to eat.

These were good, not the best cookies ever, but I liked the difference that the cornflakes added to the texture.

Yum! I was craving chocolate chip cookies with some texture and crunch, but didn't have any nuts to put in them. So, I tried this recipe. I halved it, used butter and unsweetened coconut. I also reduced the white sugar by half and that was a good change. The cookies would have been way too sweet for me if I had used all the sugar and sweetened coconut. I didn't have corn flakes, so I used rice crispies and it worked fine. I think most kinds of cereal with a neutral flavor would work. The result was a buttery cookie with great texture. I will definitely make these again.

I had to make these with whole-wheat flour, old-fashioned oats instead of quick oats and rice krispies instead of cornflakes. They turned out wonderful. I also quartered the recipe. I used a melon baller and ended up with 45 3-inch cookies! I can not imagine making the whole batch. They turned out so wonderful that I will never make them any other way.

I found the cookies to be a little on the sweet side, but otherwise the taste was good. The only problem I had was that some cookies were hard and others were crunchie. Not knowing how these are to be after baking, I cannot decide what went wrong. Can the one who posted this receipe let me know. I baked the cookies in a convection oven for 9 mins.

OK dieters, don't hate me, but I added applesauce instead of margarine. I was looking for a recipe similar to one I lost, called "crunchy, bumpy, munchy cookies." These were similar, and very good. I added 1 cup raisins, 1 cup shredded raw carrots and frosted them with a fat free powdered sugar glaze. I know they sound strange, but the cereal keeps them light and the texture is varied and marvelous. Because of the very low fat they don't store well, but they never last long either.

This is the same recipe my grandma used, it was word for word what was in her book in her handwriting. She said they were called dishpancookies because the recipe makes so many cookies that you have to mix it in a dishpan. This cookie is crisp if you cook it longer, hers were always dry and crisp--I don't like chewy underbaked cookies so these are perfect. I use butter and butterscotch chips when I make them--the best!

Wonderful! So much better the next day! I cut the recipe in half - perfect amount. Note that you can use quick or regular (old fashioned) oats. These are so similar to the "Oatmeal Chocolate Coconut Chewy" recipe from this site (but those don't have cornflakes) that I wanted this one to be different, so I omitted the chocolate chips. Loved them! Thanks for the recipe!

I wasn't sure I loved these cookies the first time I made them. Then I put them in the fridge overnight and cooked them the next day. They were much better after being in the fridge. Also I ended up cooking them longer the second day and they were better that way too. I usually prefer my cookies soft and a little gooey but I actually prefer these cookies crunchy and golden brown all over. I cook them for 10-12 minutes instead of 8-10. Also the dough is amazingly good to eat. Almost better than the cookie.

Wanted a chocolate chip recipe that was different and I LOVED these! Didn't have any corn flakes so used Special K and they were fantastic. Halved the recipe and it still made a lot of big yummy cookies. Crispy on the outside - chewy on the inside.
