This may also be made using the same amount of semi crushed cornflakes, these are really good and take only minutes to make --- work fast as the mixture will firm up quickly but the crispies will not firm up to very hard and remain chewy.

Tips for Making Perfect Peanut Butter Crunchies
- **Use fresh ingredients:** Make sure your peanut butter is fresh and has a creamy texture. This will help the crunchies come out smooth and flavorful. - **Don't overcook the sugar mixture:** The sugar mixture should be cooked until it reaches a light amber color. If you overcook it, the crunchies will be too hard. - **Add the peanut butter at the right time:** The peanut butter should be added to the sugar mixture once it has reached a light amber color. If you add it too early, it will burn. - **Stir constantly:** Stir the mixture constantly while it is cooking to prevent it from burning. - **Let the crunchies cool completely:** Once the crunchies are cooked, let them cool completely on a piece of parchment paper. This will help them to set and become crispy.Conclusion
Peanut butter crunchies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or just a snack at home. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a batch of peanut butter crunchies that will be sure to please everyone.
