Ingredients
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups Fruity Pebbles cereal (plus extra for topping)
- 1 cup white chocolate chips (optional, but delicious!)
Equipment Needed
- Mixing bowls
- Hand or stand mixer
- Baking sheets
- Parchment paper or silicone baking mat
Instructions
- Prepare the Dough:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2–3 minutes).
- Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Combine Dry Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the Fruity Pebbles:
- Gently fold in the Fruity Pebbles cereal and white chocolate chips (if using) until evenly distributed.
- Scoop and Bake:
- Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to drop dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Lightly press extra Fruity Pebbles on top of each dough ball for a colorful finish.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look slightly underbaked.
- Cool and Serve:
- Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Tips for Success
- Don’t overmix the dough to keep the cookies soft and tender.
- For chewier cookies, slightly underbake them and let them finish setting on the hot baking sheet.
- Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 5 days (if they last that long!).
