Description

These Giant Rasin Bran Cookies are a hearty twist on classic chocolate chip cookies, utilizing the familiar crunch of raisin bran cereal for added texture and nutrition. The dough combines whole wheat and all-purpose flours for a tender crumb, while brown sugar and butter provide a rich, caramel-like flavor that balances the nutty notes of the cereal. Each cookie is generously sized, offering a satisfying chewiness that holds up well to the embedded raisins and bran clusters. They are perfect for afternoon snacking, lunchbox additions, or as a wholesome dessert option. The recipe is straightforward, requiring no special equipment, and yields large, rustic cookies that cool to a delightful softness.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the crushed raisin bran cereal, whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, and baking soda. Stir until evenly mixed and set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy.
  4. Add the eggs to the butter mixture and beat well until fully incorporated and smooth.
  5. Gradually stir the dry cereal and flour mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing thoroughly until a cohesive dough forms.
  6. Drop the dough by scant 1/4 cup measures onto ungreased cookie sheets, spacing them apart to allow for spreading.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for about 14 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly browned around the edges.
  8. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
