"Butterfingers contain Confectioners' or Baker's corn flakes, which is different from Cereal corn flakes, but contributes to the bar's flakey texture. This no-bake, knockoff winner is from Tammy Michalec of Leesville, first place, Karo Corn Syrup Kids Cookie Contest no-bake winner, S.C. State Fair."
