Ingredients

Scale

1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar, packed
½ cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs, room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups Rice Krispies cereal
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Optional: ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans

Instructions

Step 1:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Step 2:

In a large bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.

Step 3:

Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract until fully combined.

Step 4:

In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Gradually mix dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.

Step 5:

Gently fold in Rice Krispies and chocolate chips. Scoop dough onto baking sheets and bake for 10–12 minutes until edges are golden and centers are soft. Cool before serving.

Notes

Fold in the Rice Krispies gently to avoid crushing them. Keeping the cereal intact ensures the cookies stay light and crispy after baking.
