Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 226 grams unsalted butter
- 150 grams granulated sugar
- 100 grams brown sugar (light or dark)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 300 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 120 grams Rice Krispies cereal
- 100 grams chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy using a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed (about 2-3 minutes).
Mix in the vanilla extract until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a dough forms.
Gently fold in the Rice Krispies cereal. If using chocolate chips, fold them in as well.
Divide the dough into two equal portions. Shape each portion into a log about 2 inches (5 cm) in diameter. Wrap each log tightly in plastic wrap or parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Remove the dough logs from the refrigerator and slice them into 1/4-inch (0.6 cm) thick rounds using a sharp knife. Place the slices onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches (5 cm) of space between each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your crispy, buttery Slice N Bake Rice Krispies Cookies!
