Cornflakes Cookies

Baking is a kind of timepass for me, so obviously i'll be always a part of any baking groups in this virtual world. Before two month's Swathi of Zesty South Indian Kitchen launched an incredible group of home bakers,obviously am a part of it. We Baking Partners will be baking different bakes every month and will be posting every 15th of the month. Last month, we baked Reine de Saba, an fabulous cake of Julia child's as a tribute on her birthday, we enjoyed thoroughly and seriously am loving to be a part of this fantastic baking group. This month we baked some cookies, once we posted our last month's bake, i got a mail from Swathi asking me to share a cookies recipe from either a book or from a site. Immediately i went through my book shelf and choosed this irresistible super crunchy cornflakes cookies from Baking: Commonsense guide by Mudroch Books which i won before few years ago for participating in an event in this blogsphere.

Eventhough we have three different cookies recipes to try for this month's bakes, i choosed this cornflakes cookies suggested by me and cream cheese chocolate cookies suggested by Tina of Pinay In Texas Cooking Corner from Food & Wine Best of the Best Cookbook Recipes Vol. 14. I'll be posting soon those addictive and ultimate cream cheese chocolate cookies. Coming to this cornflakes cookies, they goes for very easy breezy preparation with cornflakes. This recipe is a keeper and i'll be making quite often as everyone at home simply enjoyed munching them.Sending this yummy cookies to Srivalli's Kid's Delight-Anniversary Potluck Party.
