Also known as “Honey Joys” (but referred to as Honey Crackles where I grew up in South Australia), this sweet treat was a party staple.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon honey

  • 2 tablespoons butter

  • 3 ounces sugar

  • 5 ounces cornflakes

Directions

  • Melt together honey, butter, and sugar in a saucepan on low heat. Stir with a wooden spoon until sugar is dissolved.
  • Pour hot mixture into a large bowl containing the cornflakes. Mix together quickly before hot mixture cools.
  • Place 12 cupcake liners in a muffin baking tray and with a spoon, evenly distribute the mixture to each.
  • Put into a warm oven at 250F for five minutes.
