Yield 60 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 cup peanut butter (I use all natural, the kind that is just peanuts & salt)
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/2 cups flour (generous)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup finely crushed corn flakes

Steps:

In bowl of electric mixer, cream butter and sugars.
Add peanut butter; mix well.
Add eggs and vanilla; mix well.
Add flour and baking soda.
Stir in corn flakes until incorporated.
Roll dough into 1" balls, place two inches apart on cookie sheet. (If dough is too tacky, add a little more flour.)
Press down balls with fork (dip it in flour if need be) to make a criss-cross pattern.
Bake at 375 for 10-12 minutes until set and lightly golden.
Transfer to racks upon removing from oven.
