Easy Cookies  [adult supervision for younger children]

1 cup sugar
1 cup white corn syrup
1 1/2 cups peanut butter
4 cups Corn Flakes

Combine the sugar and corn syrup. This just needs to come to a boil so that the sugar dissolves. You can do this in a saucepan on top of the stove or you can use the microwave. A 2-qt. container in the microwave needs 4 min. on high or a 1 qt. container needs 5 min. on high. Add the peanut butter and stir until it is smooth. Stir in the Corn Flakes. Line a jelly roll pan with waxed paper. Drop the cookie mixture by teaspoon while still warm. You may need to reshape them a bit after you are finished dropping the mixture. Makes delicious cookies when you need them in a hurry.
