Pin ItI am always on the lookout for new cookie recipes. Awhile ago, I saw a couple of cookie recipes that used crisped rice cereal. I love cereal and cookies so why not enjoy them together?I started with my favorite oatmeal chocolate chip recipe. I stirred in Rice Krispies and waited to hear the snap, crackle, and pop. I was a little disappointed, there was no sound coming from my cookie dough. I guess I needed to add milk, but I didn’t want a soggy dough, so I pressed forward:)
The cookies baked up nicely. I really liked the added crisp from the cereal. They were a fun addition! I am glad I tried them. And since there is cereal involved go ahead and eat these for breakfast, I won’t tell:)

I love the crispiness of these cookies and chocolate chips and oatmeal go so well together.
yum! these look divine:)
hehe, i've done the corn flake cookes which came out pretty good, i bet these are great too!
These were so yummy! Easy to make, came out chewy, chocolatey, and crispy -this one is a keeper! Thanks for sharing! ❤
Fun! I love the idea of making these with Krispies!
something about those rice krispies…. i'll tell ya.
beautiful looking cookie!
Nice idea! You could prob even go with chocolate krispies if you're in the coco mood 🙂 That is too bad there was no snapping and popping in the dough, I love that.
Actually, I really must like that sound. I crack and pop people on a daily basis (or that's what THEY say).
My first time on your blog–I love it and can't wait to explore!
Of course I would eat them for breakfast! They look like fun delicious cookies!
This sounds like such a great idea!
Sorry I have been MIA, I have been so busy, but it has made me feel so bad not to have time to comment. These look great, my dad loves crispy oatmeal cookies, I have to try these.
I tried a cookie that used corn flakes once, I really liked the crunch it gave. I can only imagine how yummy rice krispies would be with cookies. Fun idea!
The cookies sound amazing! Bookmarked for sure ;0)
You my dear are the cookie expert. This look so every cripy-licious!
Wow, those sound so good! My mom puts rice krispies in her special chocolate chip cookies–they are definitely a special weapon when it comes to making good cookies!
These look delicious. For me, an oatmeal cookie just isn’t complete without chocolate chips! Great recipe.
What a great idea to add Rice Krispies. I can’t wait to try these!
A cold, rainy day today and Oatmeal Cookies would be a perfect treat!
There are always room for cookies. 🙂 I still haven’t tried cereal in them and now I can’t wait to!
I love trying different versions of oatmeal cookies. These look great!
OK…so you really need to stop with all of these cookie recipes! My mouth won’t stop watering! They all look so fabulous and delicious! Yum!
These are amazing….couldn’t have just one!
I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own blog and was wondering what all is required to get setup? I’m assuming
having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?
I’m not very web smart so I’m not 100% certain. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly
appreciated. Many thanks
Uh, why is the flour and leavening in the recipe twice? I’m going with 1 cup flour not 2…
Thanks for catching that! I updated the recipe!
This is my husband’s favorite cookie! Thanks for sharing!
I see me having these for breakfast with a hot cup of coffee! Pinning it!!
These cookies were easy to make and were really good. My grandson loved them.
My question is why are so many people making comments before they have even made or tried the cookies? What’s the point?
Glad you liked the cookies!
I make this recipe but in gluten free form and they are a huge hit. The Rice Krispies make it! I’ve also done them with butterscotch morsels instead of chocolate. Toffee bits with chocolate chips or chocolate chips and butterscotch morsels. All very good variations.
Glad you liked the cookies!
This recipe turned out horrible. I followed the recipe completely, the dough turned out dry and the cookies were puffy and cake-y. They did not taste good and the texture was awful. I followed the recipe so if I did something wrong please enlighten me.
Love these cookies! They can also be used as granola bars which are great!
Everyone who eats these cookies always asks for the recipe. However, I have decreased the sugar to 1/3 c. of each of the sugars but added 1/2 c. of organic brown rice crisps for a healthier version … and lately, I have used grass fed butter, too.
I am glad the cookies are a hit!
These are delicious! I love the unexpected crunch that the crispy rice cereal brings to the cookie. With crispy cereal and oatmeal as two of the ingredients, sounds like a breakfast stand-in to me!!
In this senior’s teenage years, I remembered one of my favorite cookie recipes combined oatmeal and rice krispies. That recipe was lost many years ago so I am so glad that I found your recipe which has undergone some minor changes as all my friends and their kids just love this recipe.
Instead of rice krispies, I use Nature’s Path’s koala crisps or sprouted brown rice crisps but increasing the amount to one and a half cups and eliminating the chocolate chips – sometimes adding raisins or dried cranberries. Since the family is trying to decrease the use of sugar, I just used 2/3 c. of combined sugars instead . Definitely a keeper
These cookies were so dry and crumbly I couldn’t get them to stick together. Finally got them in the oven and they just fell apart in places. The cookie needs another egg.
I had Rice Krispies, chocolate chips and butterscotch chips left from making Scotcheroos for Easter. I found this recipe and it was perfect! The butterscotch chips were a nice addition. I love how crispy and chewy these turned out!
Thanks for this super recipe which all of my relatives and friends just love. Also, can the dough be frozen to be baked at another sitting as I make huge batches.
Yum, these are a must try. Not sure if it was because I added some chopped walnuts, but they didn’t spread while baking. So I just pressed the ball almost flat and voila. Yum.
Turned out great! As a kid I remember my grandma would often included Rice Krispies in her cookies. Brings back fond memories.
Fabulous……Will bake over & over again Thank You !!!!!!
Glad you love this cookie recipe!
Has anybody tried making these cookies with Special K instead of Rice Krispies?
I am sure it would be fine!
