Rice Krispie Cookies
Ingredients
¼ and ¼ cup butter softened
⅔ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup light brown sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup (140g) all-purpose flour
1½ cups Rice Krispies
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Melt ¼ cup butter in a small bowl in the microwave. Place it in the fridge for 5 minutes to cool down. Then move it to the freezer for 5 more minutes to cool down further while you work on the rest of the dough.
In a medium mixing bowl combine ¼ cup softened butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar. Add the egg and vanilla extract and combine.
Add the melted butter from the freezer and combine. The butter should be cool, but not frozen.
Add the baking soda, salt, and flour and combine. Lastly, add the Rice Krispies and stir with a spoon to incorporate them into the dough.
Scoop 2 ½ tablespoons of dough for each cookie. Place the dough on a cookie sheet, about 6-8 cookies per sheet.
Bake the cookies at 350°F as follows:
Bake for 8 minutes, open the oven pick up the cookie sheet with oven mitts and bang the cookie sheet down against the rack in the oven. Be careful not to burn yourself on the rack or oven door.
Bake for 2 minutes, open the oven and bang the cookies again.
Bake for 2 more minutes (for 12 minutes total), open the oven, bang the cookies, and remove the cookies from the oven.
@hormar So for the butter, do you mean 1 and 1/4th cup butter? Because the instructions are wrong if that's the case, if not, do you mean 2/4 cup of butter? Please clarify if possible, I don't want to drop in more butter than necessary.
