Category: Cookies & Candies

Ingredients

4 1/4 cups Rice Krispies cereal
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup white sugar
3/4 cup light brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
one 12 oz. bag semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Process cereal in a food processor or blender to a fine powder. Measure out 1 cup of the powder and combine it with the flour, baking soda and salt; set aside. In a large bowl, cream together the butter, white sugar and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs, one at a time then stir in the vanilla. Gradually blend in the dry ingredients. Stir in the chocolate chips. Drop by rounded spoonfuls onto a cookie sheet.

Bake for about 10 minutes or until the edges are slightly brown and the centers of the cookies are lightly tanned. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 2 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely. To keep cookies from getting too brown on the bottom place the cookie sheet with the raw cookie dough on it on top of another empty cookie sheet before placing the cookies in the oven. The extra cookie sheet helps keep the cookies from getting too brown on the bottoms.

Makes about 40 large cookies
