Cornflake Candy Recipes

OLD FASHIONED CORNFLAKE CANDY RECIPE - (3.9/5)

Steps:

• In a medium size saucepan, heat the corn syrup and sugar, on medium heat, until the sugar dissolves. Add peanut butter and stir until smooth. Gradually add corn flakes, 1 cup at a time, while mixing. Remove from heat, then spoon mixture onto wax paper, or aluminum foil, and let cool completely. **The official recipe calls for 6 cups of corn flakes, but you can use anywhere from 4-6 cups depending on how much you'd like to make and how crunchy or "gooey" you'd like your candy {use more cornflakes for more crunch}. For these pictures, we only used 4 cups of corn flakes, so keep that in mind when making yours.

CORNFLAKE CANDY

Steps:

• Combine white sugar, brown sugar, and corn syrup in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl and heat until sugars have dissolved, about 1 minute. Stir in peanut butter. Place the cornflakes and peanuts into a large bowl and stir in syrup mixture, mixing well.
• Spray a 9x13 inch pan with cooking spray. Lightly press the corn flake mixture into the pan. Melt the butterscotch chips in the same microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 30 second intervals, stirring after each melting, for 1 to 3 minutes (depending on your microwave). Do not overheat or butterscotch will scorch. Spread over the cornflake mixture. Allow candy to cool, then cut into 1x2 inch bars.
