# What You'll Need:
01 -
1 ½ cups plain flour
02 -
1 cup white sugar
03 -
½ cup soft unsalted butter
04 -
1 cup milk
05 -
3 big eggs
06 -
1 tablespoon baking powder
07 -
½ teaspoon salt
08 -
1 teaspoon vanilla flavoring
09 -
4 cups cornflakes
10 -
½ cup brown sugar
11 -
½ teaspoon cinnamon (if you want)
# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 -
Get your oven hot at 350°F (175°C). Put some butter and flour on a 9×13 inch baking dish.
02 -
Grab a big bowl and mix flour, baking powder, and salt together well.
03 -
Take another bowl and beat the soft butter with white sugar until it looks puffy and pale.
04 -
Drop in eggs one by one, then stir in the vanilla flavoring until everything's mixed up good.
05 -
Little by little, put the dry mix into the butter stuff, adding some milk between batches. Stir just enough to make it smooth.
06 -
In a separate bowl, toss cornflakes with brown sugar and cinnamon so all the flakes get coated.
07 -
Dump the cake mix into your buttered pan and make the top flat with a spoon.
08 -
Sprinkle all that cornflake mix on top of the batter and push down a tiny bit so it sticks.
09 -
Stick it in the oven for about 25-30 minutes. You'll know it's done when you poke it with a toothpick and nothing sticks.
10 -
Take the cake out and let it sit in the pan for around 15 minutes. Then move it to a rack until it's totally cool.

Cut yourself a piece and munch on your Crunchy Cornflake Cake while the top's still crispy!
