Description
Crunchy Rice Krispies meet gooey chocolate chips in these irresistible Rice Krispie Chocolate Chip Cookies. A fun, sweet twist on a classic treat!
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups Rice Krispies cereal
- 1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat & Prep
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2: Cream the Butter & Sugars
- In a large bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.
Step 3: Add the Wet Ingredients
- Mix in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
Step 4: Combine the Dry Ingredients
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Gradually mix into the wet ingredients.
Step 5: Fold in the Goodies
- Stir in the Rice Krispies and chocolate chips gently, being careful not to crush the cereal.
Step 6: Scoop and Bake
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the baking sheets, leaving space between them. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the centers are still soft.
Step 7: Cool and Serve
- Allow cookies to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack. Serve warm or store in an airtight container.
Notes
- Don’t overmix after adding Rice Krispies — you want to keep them crispy!
- Use room temperature butter for best creaming texture.
- Chill the dough for 30 minutes if you prefer thicker, chewier cookies.
