1 c. sugar
1 c. peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
5 c. corn flakes, crushed slightly

-----------------------------------------------------------
Switch the Corn Flakes to Rice Chex and have Pay Day Bars. Press into greased 13 x 9 - inch pan. Cut into bars before they are completely cooled.
VARIATION: If you want them extra peanut buttery (gooey):
1 "heaping" cup sugar
1 "heaping" cup corn syrup
1 "heaping" cup peanut butter
1 teaspoon vanilla

I smooshed them in the pan, put mini marshmallows on top, and popped it in the oven until they started to melt a little (you want them to stick to the cornflake candy). Then I put some "real" choc chips in a baggie and melted them. I cut a tiny hole in the baggie and drizzled generously the choc over the marshmallows, criss crossing it. I sprinkled holiday jimmies on top while the choc was still wet. Wow, very cool looking and delicious! Would make a great addition to any holiday tray. People would think I slaved over it for hours!!
