welcome to the world of cookie cereal! It’s a sugary, crunchy dream that combines your love for cookies and the satisfying crunch of cereal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 egg
  • ¾ cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Mix dry ingredients: In a bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt.
  • Cream butter and sugar: In another bowl, beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla extract.
  • Combine and fold in chips: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  • Shape tiny cookies: Scoop small portions (about the size of a marble) and roll them into balls.
  • Bake: Place on the baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart. Bake for 6-8 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Cool and serve: Let them cool completely before tossing them into a bowl with milk.

Notes

  • Chill the Dough: This helps the cookies hold their shape.
  • Use a Piping Bag: If rolling tiny cookies feels like too much work, pipe dots of dough onto your baking sheet.
  • Try Different Flavors: Peanut butter, oatmeal, or even red velvet—you can experiment with your favorite cookie recipes.
