Ingredients

• 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour

• 1 teaspoon baking soda

• 1 teaspoon salt

• 1 teaspoon cornstarch

• 1 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled

• 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed

• 3/4 cup white granulated sugar

• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

• 2 large eggs, room temperature

• 1 cup Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal, crushed

• 1 cup white chocolate chips

• 3/4 cup Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal, for rolling

• 1/4 cup white granulated sugar

• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and cornstarch. Set aside.

2. Using a food processor or blender, crush the Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal into fine crumbs. Measure out 1 cup for the dough and 3/4 cup for rolling the cookies.

3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the melted and cooled butter with the brown sugar and white granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.

4. Add the vanilla extract and eggs to the butter mixture, mixing on medium speed until well combined.

5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined.

6. Fold in the crushed Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal and white chocolate chips until evenly distributed.

7. In a small bowl, combine the reserved 3/4 cup of crushed cereal, 1/4 cup white granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.

8. Use a large cookie scoop (approximately 2 tablespoons) to form dough balls. Roll each ball in the cinnamon sugar mixture and place them 2 inches apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

9. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 11-13 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.

10. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
