Easy Malt-O-Meal® Cereal Peanut Butter No Bake Cookies

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour 5 minutes

Ingredients 

Optional

  • ¼ cup semi-sweet chocolate morsels
  • ¼ cup peanut butter chips

Directions

  • Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a medium saucepan, over medium-low heat, add sugar, and cocoa powder with milk and stir until combines.
  • Add butter and corn syrup to the saucepan and stir until combined.
  • Mix in peanut butter, and extract and stir until mixture comes to a boil. Remove from heat and set aside for 5 minutes.
  • Crush cereal until pieces are broken up into smaller chunks.
  • Mix chocolate mixture into the cereal and combine.
  • Form cookies using a large spoon. I made mine larger size. They will not be a perfect circle and will look like my images- that is okay.
  • Add chips to the tops of the cookies, and gently press in.
  • Chill cookies in the refrigerator for at least 45 minutes, but longer is better.
  • Once cookies are hardened, remove them from the pan and store them in an air-tight container until you are ready to enjoy them.
