Ingredients
  

For the Cookies:
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 1 1/4 cups crispy rice cereal
  • 1 cup chopped Crunch candy bars
  • 1/2 cup milk chocolate chips

Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Mixing bowls
  • Electric mixer
  • Cookie scoop

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions:
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This step is crucial as it ensures that your cookies bake evenly.
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup a breeze.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set this mixture aside.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  5. Beat in the large egg and vanilla extract to the creamed mixture until well combined.
  6. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix!
  7. Gently fold in the old-fashioned oats, crispy rice cereal, chopped Crunch candy bars, and milk chocolate chips. The dough will be thick and chunky, which is exactly what we want!
  8. Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded scoops of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie as they will spread while baking.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. The centers may look slightly underbaked, but they will continue to firm up as they cool.
  10. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your Crispy Chocolate Chip Crunch Oatmeal Cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!

Notes

  • For a lighter version, use light butter or a butter substitute.
  • Consider using whole wheat flour for added fiber.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
