My sister gave me the Momofuku Milk Bar cookbook for Christmas and once we got home and unpacked everything I started browsing through it. \u00a0I’ve never actually been to Milk Bar, but have heard about their legendary cereal milk soft serve, compost cookies and crack pie. \u00a0My husband and I have grand plans to make a trip (maybe child-free!) up to New York City sometime in the next year to visit my sister and her family. \u00a0If we really do make it, then Milk Bar will be one of the places we have to go.<\/p>\n

The cookbook is totally accessible with recipes for yummy things like confetti cookies, cinnamon bun pie, and brownie pie and ingredients you can buy at the grocery store like ritz crackers, corn flakes, fruity pebbles and ovaltine. \u00a0But it is intimidating in some ways. \u00a0Pretty much every recipe calls for a component that you have to make separately. \u00a0This almost always makes me steer away from a recipe. \u00a0But this time I found one that seemed doable, even with the extra steps. \u00a0These cornflake, chocolate chip, marshmallow cookies are worth every second of time they take to make.<\/p>\n

\"Cornflake,<\/a> \"Cornflake,<\/a><\/p>\n

The component you have to make before you make the cookies is cornflake crunch. \u00a0It’s simple, really. \u00a0Crushed cornflakes, sugar, butter, milk powder and salt. \u00a0Mix it all together and toast it in a low oven. \u00a0Other crunches in the book include fruity pebble, pretzel and ritz, all similar to the cornflake crunch. \u00a0With my new found love of the cornflake crunch I see a day in my future where I make big batches of the stuff and store it all in my freezer so I can add them to all of my cookies.<\/p>\n

These cookies are sweet, salty, rich and buttery. \u00a0They are crunchy on the edges and soft and chewy in the center. \u00a0I usually prefer a puffier cookie, but these are flat and have earned a spot as some of the best cookies ever to come out of my oven. \u00a0They are HUGE. \u00a0Like the size of your face. \u00a0And amazing. \u00a0These are so amazing.<\/p>\n

\"Cornflake,<\/a><\/p>\n

The cornflake crunch really makes these cookies special and unlike any cookie I’ve made. \u00a0I am a believer in the momofuku crunch. \u00a0And in milk powder. \u00a0It’s magical stuff.<\/p>\n

I’ve tried to add marshmallows to cookies before, but they’ve never quite acted like the marshmallows in these cookies. \u00a0They provide a sweet, sugary, gooey, chewiness but\u00a0you don’t get too much marshmallow since they kind of melt into the cookie and join with everything else is perfect baked good harmony.<\/p>\n

Mini chocolate chips are the way to go here. \u00a0Larger ones would be too overwhelming both in appearance in the cookie and in taste. \u00a0Stick with the minis.<\/p>\n

\"Cornflake,<\/a><\/p>\n

I am so excited to try more recipes in this cookbook! \u00a0Now that I know how worthwhile it is to make the special ingredients, I’ll be much more likely to make that incredible looking birthday cake on page 104. \u00a0Drool.<\/p>\n
