As promised, here is the first of what may be many recipes posted on this blog. All such recipes will be tasty, fairly easy, and use stuff readily available even in the hinterlands (I once looked at a recipe in a famous Orange Cookbook and discovered the only requisite ingredients in my pantry were salt, pepper, and oil (but only if one was willing to substitute plain salt for sea salt and vegetable oil for olive)), and on rare occasions they may even be good for you! This recipe is not good for you at all but tastes great. The proper scientific name is apparently something akin to 'Frunkies' or some such, but whatever the nomenclature, they are easy and really good. Think of it as a 'special K bar' made with fritos.
You will need:
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 cup corn syrup
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1 10oz bag frito corn chips
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Grease a 9x13 pan and pour in the corn chips, set aside. Combine the sugar and syrup in a sauce pan and bring to a boil, remove from heat and stir in the peanut butter until smooth. Pour mixture over corn chips and stir to coat evenly. Melt the chocolate chips and drizzle over the corn chip concoction. Allow to cool completely (if possible!) then break into pieces and enjoy.
They taste much better than the name implies, someone really needs to come up with a new moniker!
