Ingredients
Ingredients:
- 1 stick butter, room temperature
- ½ cup sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ¾ cups flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ cup Rice Krispies cereal
- 1 cup marshmallows
Instructions
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cream the butter, sugar, and brown sugar together in a large bowl until smooth and creamy.
- Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined.
- Gradually add the flour and baking powder, mixing until the dough forms.
- Gently fold in the Rice Krispies cereal.
- Use a cookie scoop to portion the dough. Flatten each dough ball, place a marshmallow in the center, and roll the dough around the marshmallow. Coat the dough ball in additional Rice Krispies cereal.
- Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-14 minutes, until golden on the edges and slightly gooey in the center.
- Let the cookies cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving.
Notes
- For extra texture, try adding chocolate chips, nuts, or graham crackers for a s'mores twist.
- If the dough is too sticky, refrigerate for 10-15 minutes before shaping.
- These cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or frozen for up to 1 month.
