This Crunchy Chocolate Chip Cornflake Cookie recipe makes 30 freezeable cookies. It’s ideal to bake on the weekend for snacks throughout the week.
I starting making these delicious crunchy chocolate chip cornflake cookies for the kids as an after school snack. They always gave them the thumbs up, which was a good thing! This recipe made 30 cookies so I placed the left overs in the freezer for the kids lunch boxes.
This is another recipe that reminds me of my Nan. She made them often as I think they were one of my Pop’s favourites. In my recipe, I add a few chocolate chips, however she just used sultanas.
I rolled a heaped tablespoon of mixture into balls, which made good size biscuits. You can make them as big or small as you like, just keep an eye on them during the cooking process.

Ingredients
Method
- Preheat oven to 180°C, fan forced.
- Line two baking tray with baking paper or silicone mat.

- Roll a heaped tablespoon of mixture into a ball, then roll through extra cornflakes, flatten slightly.
- Bake in oven for 10-15 minutes or until golden.

I’ve never made choc-chip cornflake cookies… I can’t wait to give them a go. Always love finding a new freezable recipe, thanks!
Yum one of my childhood favs that I have forgotten.. Cant wait to make these and share your link.
Can I freeze the dough (before rolling spoonfuls in c-flakes)? If yes, how long will it last? Thanks 🙂
Thanks for the recipe, anything with chocolate chips, the kids seem to love lol
What a great recipe! It combines pretty much all of my favourite ingredients in one especially chocolate.
ooh, it’s a nice hidden surprise and can be easily omitted if preferred to 🙂
Great, choc bits is the only thing I don’t have! Will give them a go…
Katrina, firstly, I adore your website and am feeling so motivated 🙂 And secondly, I visited my mum today and she sent me home with a tub of cornflake cookies for my girls’ lunch boxes… spooky!!
Aaw, thankyou Gabriel, I remember my nan used to always have cornflake cookies for us, it’s one of those great go to recipes which everybody loves, I hope your girls enjoy theirs at lunch!!
Ooh love how simple these look to make. Yum!
how do you think these would go without coconut and sultanas? my family wouldnt eat them otherwise.
I’d like to know this too. My kids are a little young for coconut, and wont eat sultanas (neither will I…)
Used rolled oates
Leanda, i have never made them without the coconut, you could give them a go. Maybe add another variation of your choice.:)
These are so yummy, the kids rarely leave any for the freezer!
Made these yesterday and were super easy and delicious. I managed to sneak half to the freezer for a rainy day and leave half out. Enjoyed by both kids and mum!
Can this be adapted for a thermomix?
Thanks for reminding me about these yummy cookies. A dear friend shared this recipe many years ago but she called them chockky rocks. Same recipe with a different name.
Yes, Chockky Rocks is the correct name for kids born in the 60s and 70s like me. My grandmother always had these when we visited. I recently found her recipe book and she had this recipe cut from the Cornflakes box back in the 70s stuck in it. Lots of memories in that recipe for me.
Yes! Chocky Rocks were a bit favourite when I was growing up. And they were my grandad’s favourite, too.
Haha love the name Sandie, Chokky Rocks! .:)
You are so creative! It’s my first time to hear making a chip with corn flakes. Love it!
These look so delicious. I’ll have to give them a try.
They really are, Kate!.:) Just so addictive LOL.)

This is a guest post by Vicki from Boiled Eggs and Soldiers As it’s the school holidays I’ve been thinking about activities to do with the kids. I’m not so much of a crafty Mum, unless it’s something they can do on their own (that doesn’t involve glitter, or paint…) but I’m 100% a cooking Mum (and also […]
Unfortunately THIS RECIPE FOR SOME REASON WAS NOT INCLUDED.
Would you please try to post this recipe again. Thank you
Just baked with your recipe, turns out very well. Thanks for your great recipe!
so glad you enjoyed it May 🙂
I made the cornflake cookies last weekend (without the coconut due to allergies) but I found that the kids preferred either the sultanas OR the choc chips so I halved my batch and just added them. was a hit!! didn’t last long enough to be put in freezer.
LOL, maybe a double batch next time!!!
Yum!!! Just made these today, unfortunately didn’t have any choc chips or sulatanas but I substituted with 1 1/2 cups of pitted dates that I blitzed a bit in the food processor (just bog standard dates, not the medjool ones. Worked out fine! Thanks for the great freelance lunchbox ideas x
Just tried these as gluten free with a straight swap for swap with gf ingredients and they turned out great. thanks!
Thanks for trying and testing beforehand… Will give it a go now…
Like to have the receipt cornflakes and chocolate chips please and jam drop thank you .
