When I first posted [1]about these mind-numbingly delicious, crispy, creamy little balls of peanut butter perfection it caused quite a stir. Even though that was several months ago, I’m still feeling ripples from the shock waves these little guys caused around the blogosphere. I was thrilled by the enthusiastic reaction they received, though I really wasn’t too surprised. After all, what’s not to love about a ridiculously simple and decadently rich peanut butter cookie that you don’t even have to bake? So, when I read about The Peanut Butter Boy’s new event, The Great Peanut Butter Exhibition #1 - Cookies [2], I knew that I had to share this recipe again.
…
The Great Peanut Butter Exhibition is a joint effort of The Peanut Butter Boy [3]in conjunction with The Chocolate Peanut Butter Gallery [4]and Foodaphilia, [5] to present the latest and greatest in peanut butter blogging. They plan to choose a new peanut buttery theme each month. I think it’s a terrific idea and I look forward to “spreading” more peanut butter love around in future events as well.

Holycraptheseareamazing Cookies require only four ingredients. They are basically thrown together in a saucepan, dropped on a cookie sheet and cooled. You can literally be eating these little blobs of bliss in less than twenty minutes.
…
I’ve chosen to add a drizzle of dark chocolate over the cookies, mostly to make the pictures look prettier, but that’s not part of the original recipe. I happen to think the chocolate is the yin to peanut butter’s yang. If you’re a purist, by all means, omit the chocolate. The cookies are just as scrumptious without it.

(Printable Recipe) [6]

…
Ingredients:
(Makes about 3 dozen cookies)
…
1 cup sugar
1 cup corn syrup
1 jar (18 oz ounce) peanut butter, crunchy or creamy (I like creamy.)
6 cups corn flakes
3 oz good quality chocolate of your choice (optional)
…
Preparation:
…

Combine sugar and corn syrup in a medium saucepan. Place over medium-high heat and stir until the mixture comes to a full boil.
…
Remove from heat and stir in the whole jar of peanut butter. Mix well.
…
Add corn flakes to a large bowl. Pour peanut butter mixture over corn flakes and mix well, taking care to coat all of the corn flakes.
…
With a tablespoon or cookie scoop, scoop out and form into 1-2 inch balls, depending on your preference, and place them on a cookie sheet lined with parchment or wax paper.
…
Put the chocolate (if using) in a small bowl and melt in the microwave for about 30 seconds. Stir until smooth.
…
Drizzle the melted chocolate over the cookies.
…
When cooled, eat these cookies with reckless abandon. Be careful, though. We wouldn’t want anyone to get hurt!

…
Enjoy!
