Cornflake Cookies



This is one of the best tasting and easiest cookies I have ever made. Do be careful in choosing your cornflakes though. Some cornflakes brand may save you a little bit of money but it is worth it to buy a more genuine brand like Kellogg.
The trick with this particular cookie, is to make it rather small because it will expand A LOT. I find that the right size is about your pinkie's nail uncooked.
The recipe calls for margarine, but I used butter instead because that was what I had in my pantry. It gives my cookies a more fragrant and buttery taste, which I kinda like.

Ingredients for Cornflake Cookies
butter/margarine
sugar
flour
cornflakes
egg yolk
tsp vanilla essence
Whisk with electric mixer: butter, sugar, egg, and vanilla essence until pale. Add flour bit by bit until fully combined. Lower mixer speed to lowest.
Shape according to taste, roll in lightly crushed cornflakes. Bake for 30minutes or more.
