Peanut Butter Crunch



My kids were home-schooled so I don't have a good perspective of what school lunches are today...but I do remember my childhood.  How many of you remember Peanut Butter Crunch?  A desert treat that was always served in plastic wrap and was
oh so gooey, peanut buttery sweetness.  Well...great news!  I found a recipe that is the goodness from our childhood...it's pure sugar but oh so good!


Peanut Butter Crunch

1 Cup Sugar
1 Cup Light Corn Syrup
1 Cup Peanut Butter, creamy
8 Cups Corn Flakes Cereal

In a heavy sauce pan, combine the sugar, corn syrup and peanut butter.  Heat until sugar is completely melted, bringing to a simmer.  Remove from heat and add the cereal.  Combine well and pour into casserole dish.  Press the mixture down lightly to even it.  Let cool and cut into squares.


What can be better than peanut butter? A little chocolate... Just add a drizzle of melted chocolate, milk or dark...you choose.  Also, the 8 C of corn flakes is just a suggestion.  If you like a drier bar add a little more or if you like even more indulgence...add less!  Enjoy!
