0.5 cup water
2 tablespoons vanilla extract

1 teaspoon baking soda
0.5 teaspoon salt

Instructions
1Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2Mix sugar, peanut butter, butter, water, vanilla, and eggs together in a very large bowl until smooth.
3Combine flour, baking soda, and salt; stir into cookie batter. Mix in oats and raisins, then carefully stir in cereal.
4Drop 1/2 cupfuls of dough onto ungreased cookie sheets, spacing cookies about 4 inches apart. Flatten cookies to 1 inch thick.
