Corn Flake Candy, a Family Holiday Tradition

[@chefdwh]

It's time for a cookbook don't ya think? Love your down home style of comfort foods!

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

I think you're right 😋❤️

[@brayathedarkangel]

I'd buy one in a heart beat and I shared her videos to my dad :) he's hooked

[@victoriahanke5086]

BTW, your top is beautiful! After my husband passed,,,,I was in my kitchen looking out at the snow, and in our yard was at minimum fifty cardinals in the snow under our pine trees! have never forgotten how I cried and cried. My husband knew I loved the cardinals coming every year. I hope it was a sign he was in heaven and doing fine visiting his Famiky! ♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@shirleylaboy603]

They say when you see a cardinal an Angel is near. 🙂

[@psw4763]

The West coast doesn't have them but I've always loved them.

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

I have always heard that when you see cardinals, your loved ones are coming to say hello. I like to believe it. I lost my sister a few years ago, and the ache is still in my heart. I miss her so. Loves and hugs, Merry Christmas ❤️

Well that sure was a neat trick, spraying .the oil spray in a measuring cup . I did not know that.

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

Works beautifully. Merry Christmas ❤️

[@komeka7694]

I love this candy, Corn Flakes Candy is definitely a tradition in our family too.

[@GrandmaPatty49]

My Grandma’s Ribbon cookies is my favorite cookie for Christmas.

[@mariareyna-u6j]

thanks for this recipe.

[@deelankford1180]

thank you and God Bless yall !

[@susanaliddell4700]

You should have a phrase on your apron: “Look It There”. “look It Here”. It makes it even sweeter when we hear you say it!

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

Thank you. Maybe I'll make that my byline 😉❤️ Merry Christmas

[@lorrainestone]

😁. Corn Chex mix

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

Yumm!

[@vickieaxell9518]

Going to make this tomorrow. Thank you

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

Let me know if you do. Merry Christmas ❤️

[@princecatstarr102]

My mama used to make divinity candy at Christmas until it got too hard for her to do it. Now the rest of us are lazy so we switched to chocolate covered pretzels for our treat...lol. Thanks for this idea Karen.... that really looks yummy. Love, Hugs and Blessings and all the peace and joy this season brings to you and your family.

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

You should make some and take to your Mom. I'm sure she would enjoy the memory. 😉❤️

[@violasbakedandcookeddeligh1596]

Looks really simple and delicious!! I love your little musical characters 🥰

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

Ms Karen and Family... Merry Christmas... Thank you for all your videos. You are AMAZING!

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

Thank you so much. Merry Christmas ❤️

[@francesmorgan6397]

Sounds great

[@brucessmokeshack9138]

Divine!

[@denisejolley8598]

I have never heard of spraying the measuring cup with cooking spray. That is a great idea Karen. Thanks for the tip! That candy looks delicious!

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

I heard about this awhile back. It works beautifully. Merry Christmas ❤️

[@Carolina-nn6ye]

People do it when using anything sticky like maple syrup (for recipe use) or honey also.

[@amylynn4507]

I've never heard of this, I'll have to give it a try. I love your top Karen, Merry Christmas to you and yours!

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

Thank you. Merry Christmas ❤️

[@psw4763]

This looks so good and Corn Flakes is like a reliable friend. It's been around forever and Ioved it as a child and still do. Many decades later. Thank you again.

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

Thank you. Merry Christmas ❤️

[@tag7592]

🙋‍♀️Karen, Stephanie, and Paul. It amazes me how the corn flakes hold up in the peanut butter and Karo syrup mixture. They're perfect in configuration, almost as if each flake was individually painted with peanut butter. The candy does not fall apart or get soggy, it appears. Very interesting. Clever indeed.

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

You are right. It doesn't get soggy but the flakes do soften a bit. So easy and delicious 😋

[@GrandmaPatty49]

Will definitely make this soon, even if Christmas is over! Thanks.

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

That's right. Good anytime. 😋😉❤️

[@zullo3529]

I have never made this. My grands love marshmallow treats so I know we will all love this. Merry Christmas to you and your family Thanks Karen 🎄🎄🎄💕

[@lisalopez9551]

Looks delicious can't wait to try it!

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

It is. Let me know if you do ❤️

[@wine-not-whine8391]

Try putting a rubber band around any jar lid and then it will twist open easily! I keep rubber bands in my kitchen drawer for opening lids and to put around opened bags. ie. freezer bags, chips, cookies, any opened bag!

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

Great idea. Thank you. ❤️

[@sharonpadgett4365]

If you would have sprayed the peanut butter measuring spoon it would come out pretty clean also.

[@davidjp7197]

I will add chocolate morsels right before the mixture cools down....then scoop them into balls

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

Yumm! ❤️

[@margaretgarner853]

Yummy!

I make these as well but I make them just like the Rice Krispie treats. I color them green and make a wreath and decorate with red hots. So pretty and tasty but I’ve got to try these with the peanut butter. Love you. Merry Christmas to you and your family. 🎄❤️

Airtight container, no need to refrigerate. Keeps a while. Enjoy!
