Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup Light brown sugar
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1.5 cups Crisped rice cereal
- 1 cup Mini marshmallows
- 0.5 cup Chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl and mix until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Using a spatula, gently fold in the crisped rice cereal, mini marshmallows, and chocolate chips (if using) until evenly distributed.
Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. The centers may look slightly underbaked, which is fine as they will firm up as they cool.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy the delicious combination of crispy and chewy textures!
