Ingredients
4tablespoonsunsalted butter, cut into cubes
1cupcreamy peanut butter
1 1/2cupsmini marshmallows
1teaspoonvanilla extract
pinch of fine sea salt
6cupsplain cornflakes
Instructions
Line two large sheet trays with parchment paper, set aside.
Add the butter to a large pot over medium-low heat and let it melt, stirring occasionally. Add the peanut butter, stirring constantly until it melts. Add the marshmallows and stir constantly until melted and the mixture is combined and smooth. (Do not let the mixture boil.)
Take off the heat and add the vanilla extract and salt, stir until incorporated.
Add the cornflakes and very carefully fold them in until evenly coated in the mixture. (Be gentle, so the cornflakes don't break into pieces.)
Using a cookie scoop, make 1 tablespoon-sized mounds of the mixture onto the prepared trays.
Let the cookies sit for about 1 hour on the countertop to set or you can pop them in the fridge and they will set in about 20 minutes.
