Ingredients

• 115 grams unsalted butter
• 100 grams granulated sugar
• 50 grams light brown sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 150 grams all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 3 cups corn flakes cereal
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup optional chocolate chips or raisins

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes with a hand or stand mixer.

Step 3

Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture, and beat until fully incorporated.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.

Step 6

Gently fold in 1 cup of the corn flakes, along with chocolate chips or raisins if using. Be careful not to crush the corn flakes too much.

Step 7

Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough and roll it into a ball. Roll each dough ball in the remaining corn flakes, pressing lightly so the flakes stick to the surface.

Step 8

Place the cookie dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Enjoy your crunchy, sweet Corn Flake Cookies with a cup of coffee or tea!
