Cookie Swap
Hey Ladies,
I had a GREAT time at the cookie swap this past Tuesday. Amazing cookies that are seriously trying my self control. Uplifting and fun conversation and just a much needed break for me. As promised, here are some of the recipes from the swap.
Peanutbutter Cornflake Chews (Rena Jo)
2 cups sugar – 1 pint Light Karo Syrup – 2 cups peanut butter – 1/2 stick butter – 1 tsp vanilla – 12 oz Cornflakes
Mix all ingredients together in a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Pour over cornflakes in a large bowl and mix together to coat.
Drop by spoonful, using a spoon coated with butter, onto wax paper. Let chews cool completely before serving or storing.
