Remove the mixture from the heat and stir in peanut butter until mixture is smooth. Measure cereal and place in a large mixing bowl. Pour sauce over cereal and mix until evenly combined.
Place scoops of the mixture onto wax paper to harden. Store in an air-tight container.
Variation Ideas
I like to drizzle my peanut butter cornflake cookies with just a bit of melted chocolate after they’ve set up. Peanut butter and chocolate are always a winning combination!
You can make these cookies with other types of cereal. Kix, Cocoa Puffs, Rice Krispies, Cheerios, Honey Bunches of Oats… use whatever sounds good to you!
If you like an added crunch, feel free to throw in 1/2 cup of chopped peanuts.
After the cookies are placed on wax paper to dry, decorate them with colorful sprinkles. Just make sure to do this part while the sauce is still wet so the sprinkles have something to stick to.
Add 1 cup of mini marshmallows to the mix before spooning them onto the wax paper.
