Ingredients
Scale
2 cups Rice Krispies Cereal
1 cup All-Purpose Flour
1 teaspoon Baking Soda
1 teaspoon Salt
0.5 cup Unsalted Butter, softened
0.5 cup Brown Sugar
0.5 cup Granulated Sugar
1 large Egg
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1 cup Chocolate Chips
1 cup Mini Marshmallows, optional
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Cream the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully blended.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined.
Fold in the Rice Krispies cereal and chocolate chips, plus marshmallows if using.
Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges are golden-brown and the centers are slightly underbaked.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for smoother mixing.
Do not overmix the dough after adding the flour.
Rotate baking sheets halfway through baking for even results.
Press a few extra chocolate chips into the tops before baking for presentation.
Cookies will continue to set as they cool, achieving their signature crunchy-chewy texture.
