Ingredients
-
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
-
1 cup granulated sugar
-
1 cup packed brown sugar
-
2 large eggs, room temperature
-
1 tbsp vanilla extract
-
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
-
1 tsp baking soda
-
1/2 tsp baking powder
-
1/2 tsp salt
-
2 cups Rice Krispies cereal
-
1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
-
1/2 cup mini marshmallows (optional, for extra gooeyness)
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
-
In a large bowl, beat butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until combined.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet, mixing just until combined.
-
Fold in Rice Krispies, chocolate chips, and mini marshmallows (if using).
-
Drop 2-tablespoon scoops of dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart.
-
Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until edges are golden but centers remain soft. Cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
Notes
-
For extra gooey cookies, include mini marshmallows.
-
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
-
Do not overbake to maintain a soft center.
