"This is my invariable advice to people: Learn how to cook -- try new recipes, learn from your mistakes, be fearless, and above all have fun!" Julia Child

“A gourmet knows that the best part is not always the expensive part, and he will find that part, and then he will share it. A gourmet should want to share.”

Minnie's Cookies

     I'm not sure who Minnie is or was, but she sure made a good cookie. These are my very favorite cookie. My Mommaw used to make these for us when we were younger. I think they might have been her favorite too, because I don't remember her making many other kinds of cookies.
     I always make these around Christmas and usually a couple other times a year, too. They are always a big hit with their simple peanut butter flavor. You can add some optional drizzle on top for a special treat.

1/2 c sugar
1/2 c Karo syrup
3/4 c peanut butter
3 c Special K (or corn flakes)
OPTIONAL: 1/2 c chocolate chips+1/2 c butterscotch chips= melt and drizzle atop
  • Bring sugar and Karo syrup to boil
  • Add peanut butter and Special K
  • Stir until coated.
  • Drop on cookie sheet or wax paper to cool. Drizzle if desired.
