Servings: 12 large cookies
Calories: 324kcal
Ingredients
- 12 Tbsp (1 1/2 sticks) butter room temperature
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 2/3 cup brown sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup rice cereal (Rice Krispies)
- 1 cup chocolate chips or butterscotch chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or baking mats.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream the butter, sugars, and vanilla until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes. Add the egg and mix until incorporated.
- In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cornstarch, salt, and oats. With the mixer speed on low, gradually incorporate the dry ingredients. Remove the bowl and fold in the rice cereal and chocolate chips with a spatula. Cover and place the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- Using a large cookie scoop (I like my #20) or a ¼ cup measuring cup, form large balls of dough and place six on a sheet at a time. Bake the cookie dough for 14–16 minutes or until lightly golden brown on the tops and crispy on the edges. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Recipe Source: Adapted from Chocolate Chip Pecan Crunch Cookies recipe.
-These cookies are fantastic with chocolate chips or butterscotch chips. I've also made them with toffee, as well as a cranberry white chocolate version.
To keep your cookies fresh, STORE them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. For longer storage, FREEZE the cookies in a single layer on a baking sheet until solid, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months.
To enjoy, thaw at room temperature or warm in a 300 degrees Fahrenheit (150 degrees Celsius) oven for 5-10 minutes to restore their crispness.
