I absolutely love these cookies!! I made them ate too many.. Lol. Then gave the rest to my nephews who also couldn’t get enough. Thanks for a great recipe.
The amount of a reverse mortgage loan is determined by several factors including the Federal Home Administration (FHA)
or Fannie Mae (FNMA) appraised value of the home, its location, and the age of the borrower.
If your property is in a subdivision with lower standards, it requires
a recent appraisal (lender decides who performs the appraisal).
If you are one of these people, then you may want to look into an FHA Home Refinance.
There are limitations on the amount of closing cost that the lender can charge.

Made these cookies ! They were out of this world awesome!!!!thanks for another great recipe!
So glad you enjoyed them Leah!
I love using cereal in desserts! I have heard of corn flake cookies but frosted flake cookies sound EVEN better! What a great recipe!
Made these last night and they came out delicious! They’re getting rave reviews from my testers as well 🙂
Thanks, Jenny!
Who would’ve thought to put frosted flakes in cookies? It’s genius!
Dang girl! You know you have my heart with all these cereal desserts lately! I have a recipe just like this (and the Cinnamon Toast Crunch Macarons) in my new cookbook. Great minds think alike and all that! 😉
Just made these for the end-of-year luncheon at my school…they are fabulous! Really, it’s the pudding that makes the dough–so delicious! The flakes stay a little crunchy to give some texture and then the white chocolate chips just put everything over the top! Delicious!
I saw this post and pinned it right away ! I made them today and they are amazing !! The dough was amazing and the cookies even yummier ! Thanks for the great recipes as always a fan !
I baked these with a friend last night to celebrate being done with finals for the semester. I followed your recipe exactly and they were delicious! One thing I must say is that they taste much better today than they did when they were fresh. I can’t wait to make them for sorority events next semester!
Oh my goodness! These cookies were the best thing I’ve made in a while. So easy and perfect in every way! thanks for sharing.
I agree about only making 2 dozen, its just not enough!!
I made these to take to a carry-in at work and everyone LOVED them. I doubled the recipe and they almost all disappeared! A lot of people were expecting macadamia nuts and were surprised to hear about the Frosted Flakes instead–but I received lots of compliments on them. Thanks for another awesome cookie recipe!
Any suggestions on how to keep cookies from getting completely flattened out in the oven? I followed your recipe exactly–it looked delicious! My cookies flattened out and long before the time ran out, they were completely burned on the outer edges and raw in the middle. It was horribly disappointing! I’ve always had this problem and have tried lots of different suggestions, all to no avail.
I have the exact same problem with these cookies, they flattened out completely and were burnt on the outer edge while the middle was raw. I think next time I will cool the dough in the fridge for a few hours before baking, maybe that will help.
I just made these cookies twice and both times, flat cookies. The chips were the thickest part of the cookie. First time, may have left butter out to long to soften, but second time, only set out for 25 minutes to soften. I have made several recipes from Jenny, but this one did not turn out as hers did in the above pictures. I wonder if the measurements are correct?
Ok- I have just made these to take to a baby shower this weekend. My biggest complaint: ONLY MAKES 2 dozen! And after you sample the dough (ahem) it makes quite a few less. BUT holy cow they’re good. This is probably the 5th recipe you’ve posted that I’ve tried, and yet again, not disappointed. Thanks for some seriously good cookies that I’ll get all the praise for 🙂
Wow! Jenny, these are pure genius!
with white chocolate! awesome!!
Must. Make. Now.
I have an extra box of Frosted Flakes, so I will be making these tonight. I also have extra craisins (dried cranberries). I love white chocolate cranberry muffins and was wondering what it might be like putting cranberries in these cookies. A little sweet a little tangy???
Frosted flakes are one of my favorite cereals. I always have some at home. Your cookies look so delicious! And some crunch in cookies sound great.
LOVE this idea of using frosted flakes in the recipe!
I love a good crunch in my cookies. So smart, Jenny!
I love frosted flakes and I love cookies, this seems like a winning combination to me!
Hi. Speaking of putting cereal and other favorite breakfast items in cookies, I just tried one with the instant Quaker oatmeal packets. It was delicious! Maybe you could invent a cookie recipe with the oatmeal packets. Thanks for the great recipes.
These remind me of Special K cookies that my mom would always make. The cookie was just a little bit salty to go with the sweet, they were always perfect.
Those look crazy decadent! Yum!
This would be perfect for the frosted flakes lovers in my house!
