These are great! First thing my son wanted me to make after he got his braces off! I microwave the sugar & syrup in a 3 qt. bowl, stirring after 2 minutes, then stirring after each 30 seconds until it's boiling. Then I continue with the recipe. Very easy this way.

I agree with Joseph - very good with multi-grain cheerios! I used Reduced fat PB too. These treats would almost make a good grab and go breakfast. :)

This was good, a little too sweet for my tastes, even though I reduced the sugar and peanut butter to 3/4 c. each. Next time, I will try using only 1/2 c. sugar. Also, I used 6 c. of cornflakes and they held together fine. Thanks for an easy, sweet snack for families =)
