Recipe News: Chewy Cornflake Cookies

Wilma Stoffle of Knoxville, Tenn., was looking for a recipe for cookies like the ones her mother made many years ago using cornflakes, peanut butter and sweetened condensed milk.
She remembered that the cookies were "sticky, very tasty and somewhat chewy," but neither she nor her mother could remember exactly how to make them.

Debbie Iverson of Pasadena, Calif., thinks she has the recipe that Stoffle wants. She got it from a call-in radio show when she lived in California in the 1980s.

These rich little goodies certainly match the description. They are almost irresistible; my son and his buddies didn't even wait for them to cool before downing them. Iverson says that her kids like them even better made with Rice Krispies in place of the cornflakes. Maybe next time, I'll try that.
