These are so good. You can use crunchy style peanut butter if you want that extra crunch- I like it both ways. This was one of the recipes I used for my class of 8th grade boys cooking club.

We grew up munching on this cornflake chewy snack. Of all snacks, this has to be my favorite. After all these years I don't know where this recipe derived from. Didn't have one to follow. Always prepared from memory after being taught by my mom.
