Pebble cookies

Ingredients

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 1/4 cups Fruity Pebbles cereal

Instructions

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat. In the bowl of a stand mixer (or a large bowl with a hand mixer), cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla and beat until smooth. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt. With mixer on low, gradually mix in the flour mixture until just combined (taking care not to over-mix). With a wooden spoon, gently stir in the Fruity Pebbles cereal. Chill dough in refrigerator for about 15 minutes. Drop dough by rounded tablespoon on prepared baking sheets. Bake for about 10-12 minutes until just golden around edges. Let cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before moving to wire racks to cool completely.
