Description
A heartwarming twist on classic chocolate chip cookies, featuring the delightful crunch of Rice Krispies and sweet coconut flakes.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups Rice Krispies cereal
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup sweetened coconut flakes
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Stir in the brown sugar and granulated sugar until combined and smooth.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and large egg until well mixed.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Combine the wet and dry ingredients, mixing gently. Then, fold in the Rice Krispies, sweetened coconut flakes, and semi-sweet chocolate chips.
- Using a tablespoon, drop portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between them for spreading.
- Bake in your preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For larger cookies, use a cookie scoop and adjust the baking time slightly.
