Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 grams unsalted butter
- 150 grams light brown sugar
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 1 piece large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 190 grams all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 100 grams Cheerios cereal
- 100 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, beat the unsalted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract, and mix until fully incorporated.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
Gently fold in the Cheerios cereal and semi-sweet chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden while the centers remain soft.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your delicious Cheerios Cookies with a glass of cold milk or your favorite beverage!
