Grandma's Flake Cookies image

My grandmother always has these cookies in the cookie jar. For a nut-free version, I use 1/2 c extra corn flakes. Can also sub bran flakes, wheat flakes, Total cereal, whatever you have on hand. Makes a very thin, crunchy but chewy cookie. One of my husband's favorites.

I had some trouble getting the cookies to spread out in the oven. I think I might have needed to grease the baking sheet more. But overall, they still tasted good.

These cookies were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try making them again with less sugar next time.

I've been looking for a flake cookie recipe that I really love, and this one is it! The cookies are crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, with just the right amount of sweetness. I'll definitely be making these again and again.
