NO-BAKE EASY CORN FLAKE CRUNCHIES



No-Bake Easy Corn Flake Crunchies image

I have been making these incredibly easy, sweet treats since I was a kid, and I still LOVE THEM! I don't do the add-ins 'cause I think they are great without them. One tip: try to work fairly quickly after removing from heat because the mixture gets harder to work with as it cools. Having all the ingreds. pre-measured before starting makes this a lot easier. This is a great treat

Tips:

  • Use fresh chicken tenders for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Be sure to coat the chicken tenders evenly in the buttermilk mixture before dredging them in the cornflake crumbs.
  • Use a large skillet or griddle to cook the chicken tenders so that they have plenty of room to brown evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet or griddle when cooking the chicken tenders, or they will not cook evenly.
  • Cook the chicken tenders over medium heat so that they have time to cook through without burning.
  • Serve the chicken tenders with your favorite dipping sauce, such as honey mustard, barbecue sauce, or ranch dressing.

Conclusion:

Cornflake crunch tenders are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for busy weeknights. They are also a great way to use up leftover chicken tenders. So next time you are looking for a quick and tasty meal, give cornflake crunch tenders a try!
