Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 ½ cups brown sugar and butter flavored crispy corn and oat breakfast cereal (such as Cap'n Crunch®)
1 ½ cups bread flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ cup butter, softened
⅓ cup butter flavored shortening (such as Crisco®)
½ cup brown sugar
½ cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Steps:

Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease three baking sheets.
Process the cereal in a food processor or blender until a fine crumb is achieved. Whisk the cereal crumbs together with the bread flour, baking powder, and baking soda in a mixing bowl; set aside.
Beat the butter, shortening, brown sugar, and white sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth. Add 1 egg and allow to blend into the butter mixture before adding the other with the vanilla. Mix in the flour mixture until just incorporated. Drop by heaping spoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets.
Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are golden, about 12 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
