This recipe reaches perfection with a package of chocolate chips poured over the warm bars and then spread with a knife after they soften. Also, for gooier bars I recommend increasing the corn syrup and peanut butter by 1/4 cup.

I've been making this recipe forever too. I use the crunchy peanut butter and a half cup white sugar and a half cup brown sugar. All the rest is the same and everyone that tries it loves it!

I had some leftover cornflake cereal so I thought I'd throw this together... it was so easy and everyone at work raved about it! Definitely not just for kids.

I love the taste of these and I do it with different types of cereal all the time. I add a little more peanut butter though because of preference.

This recipe was awesome! My kids love them. I have made these several times now, and my kids always want more. I must say however that 10 cups of the corn flakes is too much. I only use about 7 cups. I also melt milk chocolate chips and spread it on the top, it is much more tasty. Thanks

These were good. I did alter the recipe based on the other reviews and I received good feedback. And I added chocolate on top. The next day, they were soggy, though. Oh well. Still good.

Very good and easy to make! I used 4 cups of cornflakes and 1 cup of crispy rice. Instead of corn syrup I used date syrup.

I've made this recipe for years, but DEFINITELY half the corn flakes or double other ingredients. I make "spoon cookies" instead of spreading into a pan.

This recipe is exactly like the ones I used to eat in our middle school cafeteria (bought for a dime apiece). Based on other reviews, I doubled all ingredients except the cornflakes, and they turned out perfectly. I used a large plastic bowl for mixing, and just tossed the flakes with the syrup using 2 wooden spoons. Easy breezy!

I thought these were just average, but nothing special. I didn't think they had much flavor to them, I could barely taste the peanut butter. They were very easy, but I probably would not make them again.

Wow! Other people actually have heard of this! ;) I have been making this since I was a kid, but we call it "Cornflake Stuff". I had a 'retro' moment this week and have made it 4 times. It's so easy and so good. Your recipe is like mine, only I use the microwave, 3 minutes or until bubbling is perfect. I just spread it out on wax paper so it's big and gooey. Crunchy peanut butter works great if you're a peanut lover.

This recipe will teach me once and for all to make sure I read everyone's reviews before starting to cook!! I made these into drop cookies and followed the recipe exactly. They were quite good, but as other reveiwers suggested, the amount of corn flakes does need to be reduced significantly. So this time around, my cookies are a bit dry, but next time I will reduce the corn flakes to 8 cups.
