I’m not exaggerating when I say these cookies are INCREDIBLE. I know I talk a big game with these best ever snickerdoodles, but think of that cookie and add a ton of cinnamon toast crunch cereal flavor & cream cheese frosting. It’s epic to say the least. This recipe is made from the base of my famous Kroll’s Kookies chocolate chip cookie recipe. If you haven’t tried them out yet, you need to ASAP. I love using that cookie recipe as a base, and adding to it to make different types of cookies like this amazing cinnamon toast crunch cookie! I was inspired to make a cereal cookie after watching the Milk Bar episode on Chef’s Table. After multiple batches of cinnamon toast crunch cookies and a lot of cereal consumed, I nailed down the recipe. And now all I can think about are all the other cookies I want to make with cereal! But these cookies are loaded with ground cinnamon, crushed cinnamon toast crunch, white chocolate chips and make 6 giant cookies. Can I get an AMEN?! I hope you love these gems are much as we do!
Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cereal: Two cups of the cereal gets processed in a food processor into a fine consistency. This gets folded into the cookie dough. An additional cup gets crushed lightly for garnishing on the tops of the cookies. Instant Pudding Mix: You’ll just add the dry powder, no need to prepare the pudding. I love using the white chocolate flavor but the vanilla works well too if you can’t find it! Adding pudding to cookies makes them soft, chewy, ooey-gooey and full of flavor! It helps them stay soft for days too! Corn Starch: Adding in cornstarch is key to giving cookies that delectably soft center that’s just to die for. It also helps to keep the cookies thick and GIANT! Cake flour: Cake flour is finer, softer and lighter than All-Purpose Flour and I find using a mix of both cake flour and All-Purpose results in the perfect cookie. You can find cake flour in most grocery stores, usually on the top shelf. If you don’t have cake flour you can still make these cookies, just replace it with All-Purpose flour.
