Copycat

I am a copycat and I enjoy being one.
I hear about a fabulous cookie from a bakery or I watch Bobby Flay make a dish on "Throwdown" and I have to recreate it.
I have heard a lot about the Momofuku Milk Bar's famous cookies.
They feature all kinds of unusual additions and ingredients.
Today I branched out and made caramelized cornflakes to go in my

Copycat Momofuku marshmallow cornflake chocolate chip cookie.

These cookies are kind of like a cross between chocolate chip cookies and rice krispy treats.
Really yummy :)
