Would make this again.
I had this recipe for years and finally
decided to make it this month, November,
2008. Bought the Frosted Corn Flakes.
Came home from the store and was unhappy
to find I did NOT have any chocolate chips, as I had thought. I USED BUTTER-
SCOTCH CHIPS and the cookies turned out WONDERFUL.
I called them BUTTERSCOTCH CRISPS. It
didn't bother me that I didn't "stripe"
the cookies. I also let them cool on
brown paper. Crisp and wonderful. five stars

Would make this again.
Is this the original recipe that appeared on Kellogg's sugar frosted flakes in 1971? My 3 year old son (at the time) loved these cookies and asked for them constantly. I saved the recipe but cannot find it. They were delicious and very crunchy, not soggy.
I baked them every time the family finished a batch. We all loved the recipe. five stars

Would not make this again.
Why did I try these?? They are not "pretty", not even interesting looking....Perhaps I used too much chocolate (expensive and tasty chocolate!)and swirled too much; however they seemed to be a waste of time and ingredients. I'm disappointed. one star

My mom first baked these cookies for me when I was a little girl (about thirty years ago). Now I make them for my children, and they love the cookies as much as I do.

If your flakes get a little soggy in the mixing, try making the dough as described and then rather than stirring in the flakes, roll each cookie in flakes just before baking. They stay crunchier this way. I also like to use dark chocolate or milk chocolate instead of the semi-sweet sometimes. five stars

Would not make this again.
The cookies have very little flavor. They taste a bit flat. The frosted flakes taste stale when they are baked. Very disappointed. No one in the family likes them. one star
