How to Make Cereal Cookies
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter (or Crisco) and ¾ cup packed light brown sugar with ½ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in 2 cups rolled oats, 1 cup crushed cornflakes, 1 cup Rice Krispies cereal, and 1 cup shredded sweetened coconut.
- Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
- Gently flatten each cookie slightly with a fork.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
