Spazzy Cornstarch Argo Cereal With Peanut But

Okay, so I know what you might be thinking – cornstarch as a cereal? But trust me on this, I recently stumbled upon this 'Spazzy Cornstarch Argo Cereal' trend, and my curiosity got the better of me. And guess what? It's surprisingly delicious, especially with my little twist! If you're looking for something uniquely creamy and satisfying, you absolutely have to give this a try. At its core, cornstarch cereal is simply cooked cornstarch mixed with a liquid, often milk or water, and then sweetened. It creates this incredibly smooth, almost pudding-like texture that's unlike any traditional breakfast cereal. It's a blank canvas just waiting for your favorite toppings. I used Argo cornstarch for mine, and it turned out perfectly creamy. It's truly a game-changer if you're exploring new textures or just want a comforting, warm treat. Now, for my secret ingredient that takes this from good to 'OMG, I need more!' – peanut butter M&M's! The creamy cornstarch base pairs incredibly well with the crunch and salty-sweetness of the M&M's. It's like a deconstructed peanut butter cup in a bowl, but with that unique cornstarch texture. I just stirred them in right after cooking, and they melted slightly, creating these little pockets of gooey peanut butter chocolate goodness. If you're a fan of cornstarch with peanuts, this is definitely the way to go! The colorful peanut butter candies also make it super fun to look at. Making it is super straightforward, truly in the spirit of a #5ingredients recipe. Here's how I did it: Ingredients: You'll need about 2-3 tablespoons of cornstarch, 1 cup of milk (any kind works, dairy or non-dairy!), a sweetener like sugar or honey to taste (start with 1-2 tablespoons), a tiny pinch of salt to balance the flavors, and a handful of peanut butter M&M's (I used about a quarter cup). You can also add a splash of vanilla extract if you like. Mix cold: In a cold saucepan, whisk the cornstarch with a quarter cup of the milk until it's completely dissolved and smooth. This is crucial to prevent any lumps! Heat it up: Add the remaining milk, sweetener, and salt to the saucepan. Heat over medium-low, stirring constantly with a whisk or spoon. It will start to thicken pretty quickly, usually within 3-5 minutes. Keep stirring until it reaches your desired pudding-like consistency – some like it thicker, some a bit looser. Stir in M&M's: Remove from heat and immediately stir in your peanut butter M&M's. They'll get nice and melty, infusing that delicious flavor throughout. Serve: Pour it into your favorite cornstarch cereal bowl and enjoy warm! I sometimes sprinkle a few extra M&M's on top for extra visual appeal and crunch, and maybe even a drizzle of extra peanut butter if I'm feeling indulgent. I love how versatile this is. While the peanut butter M&M's are my current obsession, you could totally experiment with other toppings like fresh fruit, nuts, or even a drizzle of chocolate sauce. It’s also super comforting on a chilly evening or when you're craving a unique sweet treat. If you've been curious about trying this cornstarch cereal trend, this is your sign to dive in!
