My mother used to make coconut macaroons using Eagle Brand sweetened condensed milk and cornflakes!

Well, she did switch to bran flakes later, but the original recipe called for corn flakes! *LOL*
I'll see if I can find the recipe in the next few days (just moved and still am trying to put things together properly).
Here's what I can remember:
1 can Eagle Branch sweetened condensed milk (not evaporated milk)
1/2 cup peanut butter (can be smooth or crunchy, as you choose)
Shredded coconut--can't remember exactly. I think it's about 2 cups.
Chopped nuts. I think the original recipe called for walnuts, but she preferred pecans. It was either 1/2 of 1 cup.
Corn flakes. I think the original recipe calls for 2 or 3 cups, but I just added them until the batter/dough was too stiff to mix by hand!
Combine sweetened condensed milk and peanut butter. Add coconut. Add nuts. Add corn flakes until batter/dough is very stiff. It will be sticky!
Roll into balls. Original recipe said about walnut size--we found a food scoop that was slightly larger and had to adjust the baking time. I remember the had to be baked at 375F degrees, but not the amount of time. Around 15 to 20 minutes, I think, depending on size of cookies.
This is one of those recipes you can tweak to suit yourself and your family.
As I said, I'll try to find the original recipe and post it.
