Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 5 cups corn flakes

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 bag (approximately 10-12 oz) butterscotch chips
  • 1/2 cup milk chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients and Pan: Place 5 cups of corn flakes into a large mixing bowl and set it aside. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prepare for forming the cookies.
  2. Melt the Mixture: In a medium-sized pot over low heat, combine the butterscotch chips, milk chocolate chips, and creamy peanut butter. Stir constantly until everything is fully melted and smooth, ensuring the mixture doesn’t burn or stick to the bottom of the pot.
  3. Combine with Cornflakes: Pour the melted butterscotch, chocolate, and peanut butter mixture over the corn flakes. Gently stir with a spatula or wooden spoon until all the corn flakes are evenly coated with the chocolaty mixture.
  4. Form Cookies: Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop spoonfuls of the coated cornflakes onto the parchment-lined baking sheet, shaping them into cookie-sized clusters.
  5. Chill to Set: Place the baking sheet with the formed cookies into the refrigerator. Chill for at least 30 minutes to allow the mixture to firm up, creating the perfect chewy and crunchy texture.
  6. Serve and Enjoy: Once set, remove from the refrigerator and enjoy your delicious butterscotch cornflake cookies immediately or store them in an airtight container for later snacking.

Notes

  • For a nuttier flavor, use chunky peanut butter instead of creamy.
  • Make sure to stir constantly while melting the mixture to avoid burning.
  • You can substitute milk chocolate chips with semi-sweet chocolate chips for a less sweet option.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
  • These cookies are no-bake, making them a great quick dessert option.
