Flaky flix cookie copy

• 1 package plain wafer cookies either vanilla or chocolate filled (do not get chocolate coated wafer cookies)
• 1 cup semi sweet-chocolate chips (milk chocolate can be used if you prefer)
• 3/4 cup crushed cornflakes
• 3 tbsp melted butter
• 1 tbsp sugar (optional)
• 1/4 tsp salt

1. Mix crushed cornflakes with melted butter and salt. Sprinkle in sugar if desired.
2. Preheat oven to 275. Spread cornflakes onto parchment lined baking sheet then toast in oven for 15 minutes or until golden brown. Allow to cool.
3. Melt chocolate chips in microwave (microwave in 50% power for 30 seconds then stir and repeat until all melted). Allow to cool enough to handle.
4. Roll wafer cookies in melted chocolate then immediately roll in corn flakes.
5. Let sit on rack until hardened.

So Mother’s Cookies made some of my favorite cookies growing up and into adulthood. The pink and white frosted circus animal cookies. Double Fudge sandwich cookies (ten times better than Oreo!) and Flaky Flix. When Mothers went out of business and took away my three favorite cookies, I despaired. Then thankfully, someone bought the brand and brought back Circus Animals and my beloved Double Fudge cookies, but Flaky Flix was gone forever. Since it was essentially a chocolate wafer cookie covered with chocolate and corn flakes, I figured it wouldn’t be difficult to recreate.

These are easy to recreate and ridiculously delicious.
