Tasty Breakfast Cookies
"My family loves these little cookies for breakfast. All three of my children gobble them right up. They contain bacon, egg, cheese and corn flakes, yet are still sweet. They have a unique flavor, but we love them, and they are fairly quick to make! This recipe was sent to us by our college president's wife in a Christmas card several years ago and we've been enjoying it ever since."

Back in 1969 when I was in middle school home economics class I made cookies similar to these. I have been hunting for them ever since. All I remembered about them was that they had bacon & corn flakes in them. I love the bacon taste with the crunch of the corn flakes. Yum!
