Ingredients

• 120 grams Unsalted butter
• 100 grams Granulated sugar
• 50 grams Brown sugar
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 180 grams All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 60 grams Cornflakes (lightly crushed)
• 50 grams Chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 3-4 minutes using a hand or stand mixer.

Step 3

Add the egg and vanilla extract to the creamed mixture, and mix until well combined.

Step 4

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

Step 5

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

Step 6

Gently fold in the lightly crushed cornflakes and optional chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7

Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are golden brown and crunchy.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Serve the cookies once they are fully cooled, and store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
