How to Make Peanut Butter Chewies

  1. In a large saucepan, melt 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup light corn syrup, and 1 cup creamy peanut butter together over low heat. Stir frequently and constantly to prevent scorching.
  2. Maintain a low heat; do not boil the mixture.
  3. Once completely melted and smooth, remove the saucepan from the heat and gently stir in 4 cups of corn flakes.
  4. Using a spoon or a cookie scoop, portion out 1/4 cup of the mixture onto wax paper-lined baking sheet.
  5. Alternatively, lightly butter your hands and shape the mixture into 1-inch balls.
