“Cinnamon Toast Crunch” is one of the most popular breakfast cereals in America, famous for its delicious cinnamon sugar. This recipe transforms a traditional chocolate chip cookie recipe into the ultimate combination of chewy and crunchy cinnamon flavor.
Ingredients
- ½ cup butter, softened
- ½ cup cane sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 egg
- 1¾ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- Approximately ⅓ cup cinnamon sugar (combination of cane sugar, brown sugar, and cinnamon)
- ½ cup cinnamon cereal
Directions
Mix flour, baking soda, and salt until combined. In a separate bowl, combine the butter, brown and cane sugars, vanilla, and the egg. Afterward, join all of the ingredients into the same bowl. Once the ingredients are all combined, crush the cereal into small chunks before folding it and the cinnamon sugar into the batter. Feel free to add as much extra cinnamon as desired. Ideally, leave the dough to cool in the freezer for approximately 30 minutes.
When 20 minutes have passed, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, or 175 degrees Celsius. Once the batter has cooled, scoop it onto a baking tray with approximately 2 inches of space between each cookie. Bake for around 10 minutes or until golden brown, and enjoy!
