I know my Mother has a great recipe for corn flake cookies and
e-mailed a request for it. She called it in from California. I never
took it before because it is too dangerous. I can’t stop eating them.
I have no idea where she got it, maybe the Settlement cookbook. I’ll
give the original recipe then, in brackets, her modifications. She
highly recommends doubling it.
Mix together dry ingredients & set aside. Beat margarine and
gradually add sugar & orange rind. Beat until fluffy. Mix together
egg and milk [or o.j.] Alternately add the dry and liquid ingredients
to the margarine. Gently fold in the corn flakes and nuts. Drop by
teaspoonsful onto greased cookie sheet, about 1 1/2″ apart.. Bake in
a pre-heated 350 degree F. oven for about 15 minutes or until lightly
browned. Remove to wire rack and cool.
