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.

Pour mixture over corn flakes and stir until they are well coated. Turn out on buttered foil on jelly roll pan, spreading evenly as possible. Cool, then break into pieces. --- Note: You may use other cereal if desired. Honey Nut Cheerios works very well.
