Cereal Cookies

Posted Thu, 07/08/04

 

I don't often eat breakfast, but when I do I usually go full throttle with sausages, hash browns and biscuits and gravy, or light with a bowl of Special K cereal or instant grits from Quaker. On average, I probably have breakfast twice a month. I prefer having my main meal at lunchtime, and typically skip dinner as well.

 

As I was browsing around for a link to Special K, I came across a recipe for cookies made with the cereal. The following was posted by Kelsey at the Recipe Place:

 

Special K Cookies

1 C white sugar

1/2 C brown sugar

1 C white syrup

2 tsp. vanilla

1/4 tsp. salt

1-1/3 C peanut butter

5 (heaping) C Special K Cereal

 

Bring the two sugars and the white syrup to a small boil. Add vanilla, salt, and peanut butter to the mixture. Mix well; pour over cereal. Mix and drop by teaspoons onto wax paper; allow cookies to cool. Serve.

I don't like grazing on desserts. I'd rather snack with mixed nuts, rice cakes or savories like Vienna sausage, black olives or popcorn, but there are certain sweet recipes I don't mind making and sampling. I adore peanut butter cookies made from scratch. Zucchini and pumpkin breads also rank high on my list. Cookies made from cereal sound tasty. I may give the Special K recipe a shot this weekend.
