these were fast and easy to make. my brother LOVES eatmores so i made them when he and his family came over and they loved them!. they said it tastes like a cross between an eatmore and a nobake cookie.. must be the cornflakes..i think if i made these again i would leave them out. but they were tasty and peanutty and way cheaper than going to canada and buying eatmores! thanks my brother took the recipe home with him even though his wife said not too because she would want to make them all the time and eat them all.

I've never had an Eatmore bar, so didn't have anything to compare it to, but these were delicious. Very easy to make, too. This is a great recipe for summer when you don't want to start up that oven.

I made these bars last night.......yummy, yummy, yummy. They do taste similar to Eatmore bars! I didn't have regular corn flakes, so I used Frosted flakes instead...still turned out delicious...a wee bit sweeter I guess than they should have been because of the sugar in the frosted flakes, next time when I make them, I will cut down on the brown sugar, if I use that cereal again, but everyone still loved them! Thank you heather gagnon for a wonderful dessert recipe.....I will make these again! :-)
