Ingredients

1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
¾ cup granulated sugar
¾ cup packed light brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 ½ tsp vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 ½ tsp baking powder
¼ tsp salt
1 ¼ cups Fruity Pebbles cereal

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2: Cream Butter and Sugars

In the bowl of a stand mixer (or a large bowl with a hand mixer), cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).

Step 3: Add Eggs and Vanilla

Add the eggs and vanilla extract, and beat until smooth and well combined.

Step 4: Mix Dry Ingredients

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

Step 5: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

With the mixer on low, gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6: Add Fruity Pebbles

Using a wooden spoon, gently fold in the Fruity Pebbles cereal until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7: Chill the Dough

Chill the dough in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes. This helps prevent the cookies from spreading too much while baking.

Step 8: Scoop and Bake

Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just golden.

Step 9: Cool and Serve

Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely

  • Use room temperature butter. This ensures the dough creams smoothly and evenly.
  • Don’t overmix the dough. Overmixing can lead to tough cookies.
  • Customize the cereal. Swap Fruity Pebbles for Cocoa Pebbles, Cap’n Crunch, or even crushed Rice Krispies for a different twist.
  • Add a glaze. Drizzle the cooled cookies with a simple powdered sugar glaze for extra sweetness.

Variations

Rainbow Sprinkle Cookies
Add ½ cup rainbow sprinkles to the dough for an extra pop of color.

Lemon Fruity Pebbles Cookies
Add 1 tbsp lemon zest to the dough for a bright, citrusy flavor.

White Chocolate Fruity Pebbles Cookies
Fold in ½ cup white chocolate chips for a creamy, indulgent twist.

How to Store These Cookies

  • Room Temperature: Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
  • Freezer: Freeze the baked cookies for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature before serving.
