How to Make Cocoa Puff Cookies

  1. In a large saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar, ½ cup light corn syrup, and ¼ cup honey.
  2. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly.
  3. Continue to boil, without stirring, until the sugar is almost completely dissolved and the mixture reaches 240°F (115°C) on a candy thermometer (about 5-7 minutes).
  4. Remove from heat and immediately stir in ½ cup creamy peanut butter until well combined. Gently fold in 2 cups Cocoa Puffs cereal.
  5. Drop rounded tablespoons of the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving space between each cookie.
  6. Let the cookies cool completely at room temperature until hardened (about 30 minutes).
  7. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
