Ingredients

1 cup sugar
½ cup brown sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1 ½ cup peanut butter I like to use crunchy
1 tsp vanilla
6 cups Special K cereal

Instructions

In a medium sauce pan, combine and stir together the sugar, brown sugar and corn syrup and cook over over medium heat. Proceed to bring the mixture to a boil and then remove from the heat. After that, add in the peanut butter and vanilla extract and stir until smooth.
Next, stir in the cereal and mix until the cereal is well covered with the peanut butter mixture. Then, drop teaspoons full of the cookie mixture onto waxed paper. If you want to shape the cookie slightly while it is on the spoon, just use your hands to shape them into a ball.
If you want a little chocolate drizzle on top, melt 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds until melted and smooth. Place the melted chocolate in a plastic sandwich bag and snip a tiny hole in one of the bottom corners so you can squeeze out the chocolate. Drizzle over the cookies right after they are formed.
Let the cookies cool on the wax paper for about 20 minutes, then serve and enjoy!
