My husband came home from work the other day and mentioned that his co-worker’s wife makes a cookie with white chocolate chips and Fruity Pebbles® breakfast cereal. If you’re anything like me, you’d give him the stink face and probably think … that sounds … weird. Cereal, in a cookie? Doesn’t that get soggy? Does it keep its crunch? I had so many questions!

Fast-forward to this weekend, when he asked if I’d try to make some of those cookies. While I was hesitant, I also knew that making anything with Fruity Pebbles would be fun for the kids because of all the COLORS! It’s such a fun cereal.

To make these cookies even easier, I grabbed a box of Absolutely Almond Pound Cake Mix™! Simply add to the mix a half cup softened butter, 2 eggs and a half cup white chocolate chips, then fold in a half cup of cereal. Scoop onto greased cookie sheets and bake at 350°F for 10-12 minutes. Let them cool and serve them up!

Spoiler alert: the cereal stays pleasantly crisp and is a nice contrasting texture to the almond pound cake cookie! Want to amp up the cookie even more? Dip half the cookie into melted chocolate and let set on parchment paper.

Enjoy!
