CORNFLAKE CHOCKY ROCKS (CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Cornflake Chocky Rocks (Chocolate Chip Cookies image

My mum always cooked these delicious cookies when I was a child. I believe the recipe was originally published by Kellog's on the back of the cornflake cereal box (in Australia). My favourite way to eat these is raw. If I eat them cooked I like them so they are still gooey in the middle. I dont like them cooked for too long as they go crunchy and loose all of the gooey goodness.

DREAMSICLE-CREAMSICLE ON THE ROCKS!



Dreamsicle-creamsicle on the Rocks! image

I searched thru all the recipes posted here for this type of cocktail but most of them had ice-cream as an ingredient. So, I created this one, without ice-cream. It is very smooth, slightly creamy and definitely reminiscent of those wonderful ice-cream confections we all loved. But be careful...it's surprisingly potent!
