Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 115 grams unsalted butter
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 100 grams light brown sugar
- 1 piece large egg
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 150 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 100 grams cornflakes cereal
- 150 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Use a hand mixer or stand mixer for best results.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture, and beat until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Using a wooden spoon or spatula, gently fold in the cornflakes cereal and semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed in the dough.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches (5 cm) of space between each cookie to allow for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look just set.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
