I really like this recipe. It's really simple to make, and fun for kids. I used frosted flakes instead of the corn flakes which worked just as good, and I also used peanut butter crunch cereal in it too && it turned out great...everyone loves it.

My step mom loves this stuff!! She can't eat real peanut brittle because of her teeth. I don't know how much it really compares to real peanut brittle, but who cares! This is yummy!! Just don't cook the sugar and corn syrup to long or it will be hard.I used generic cornflakes to cut down on cost and you can't tell. My husband calls it Oakey Peanut Brittle.

Not a 5 star recipe to me. I do not think that it tastes at all like peanut brittle. (I had made peanut brittle along with this, so I had it nearby to compare.) To me, it tastes like cornflakes and peanut butter. Even my kids were not bowled over by this one. Sorry!

So easy and inexpensive to make. Everyone loved this dessert! My bf's g'ma was excited because she can no longer eat real peanut brittle and this tasted close enough for her. Thanks for a great recipe!

My grandma used to make this and it is excellent. Thanks for giving me a slice of my childhood back. It doesn't taste anything like peanut brittle to me, but it is a wonderful treat.

This was really good. I put the cornflakes in the pan and then poured the syrup over it and stirred. Saves on cleanup. I'll definitely be making this at Christmas time.

This was very good and easy! Tastes just like the real stuff except no messing around with that dran candy thremometer. Two suggestions: 1. Next time I will use a much lareger pan so I can press it thin, this time it was thinker and you almost cracked a tooth eating it right out of the fridge. 2. It would be great if you could add just a touch of salt so you could have the sweetness off the peanut butter and corn syrup and saltiness of the peanut butter also.

Everyone i made this for, including the kids, loved it. It was quick, using waxed paper to line the pan made cleanup a cinch, and one square in my diet was a yummy low point treat.

Okay, I must of cooked the sugar and the cornsyrup too long, because the end result was a very hard square. The flavour was wonderful and I can see how it could be really good. I just wasn't sure when the sugar was dissolved. I actually skinned my knuckle and drew blood when trying to cut these. I'm sure it was my mistake!! On the other hand, my husband ate the whole thing!

We are unable to eat peanuts so this snack is a sure winner. It takes care of our craving for peanut brittle. The only change I made was to use Frosted Flakes and decrease the sugar to a half cup. It is absolutely delicious!

This is a fabulous recipe. I used some other flake cereal that I had and don't like eating plain--now it tastes great. I also added a few handfuls of chocolate chips just before the peanut butter. My husband thinks it is great too!
