Once apon a time, I thought I would save money by making candy for everyone for Christmas instead of buying a bunch of commercial gifts. This was about 17 years ago. It was VERY expensive as I recall, but a personal touch that everyone enjoyed. One of the candies was very good, and I have never been able to find a recipe again. I wonder if anyone out there knows it. It was corn flake clusters. It had butterscotch drops, melted, mixed with peanut butter and butter and that might be all. Pour in the corn flakes, stir it up, and drop handfuls onto a plate to cool and dry. It was soooo good. Does anyone out there know this recipe? quantities? other ingredients I may have forgotten? Thank you
