Baker’s Notes
Handle with care: Gently fold in the cereal to preserve its crisp texture.
Bake just until set: For chewier cookies, remove them when the centers still look slightly underdone.
Storage: Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days to maintain the signature crunch.
These cookies deliver a wonderful mix of chewy, crunchy, and chocolaty in every bite—perfect with a glass of milk! 🍪✨
