Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Fruity Pebbles Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter with granulated and light brown sugars. Beat for about 2 minutes until light and fluffy.
  3. Crack in the eggs, one at a time, and pour in the pure vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients until just combined.
  5. Fold in the Fruity Pebbles cereal and white chocolate chips, ensuring even distribution.
  6. Scoop out roughly 1.5-inch balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each scoop. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden brown.
  7. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use room temperature eggs and butter for better mixing; don't overmix the dough. Consider chilling the dough for thicker cookies and add extra toppings for a bakery-style finish.
