Easy Fruity Pebbles Cookies with chocolate chips are a colorful treat with the familiar flavor and crunch of your childhood favorite cereal.

Preheat the oven to 350°F/180°C (160°C fan oven), and line 3 cookie sheets with parchment paper or Silpat silicone mats.
In a bowl, combine flour with baking soda and salt and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, with a hand mixer cream butter with sugar until smooth and creamy.
Add an egg, and vanilla extract and beat for 1 minute.
Add in the dry ingredients, and on low-speed mix until just combined. Do not overmix the cookie dough.
With a silicone spatula, fold in 1 ½ cups of fruity pebbles cereal, and chocolate chips.
To a small bowl, add ½ cup of fruity pebbles. Scoop out cookie dough using a medium cookie scoop, then dip in the fruity pebbles (you only want one side of the cookie dough ball to be covered in fruity pebbles). Place on the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2 inches between them.
Bake for 10-11 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool on cookie sheets for 10 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Use a medium-sized cookie scoop to make balls that are about 25 grams. This way you'll end up with 28 cookies that are 8 cm or 3 inches in diameter.
Instead of milk chocolate chips, try white chocolate morsels!
You can also try this recipe with cocoa pebbles to make an extra chocolatey version.
Only dip the top half of the dough balls in the fruity pebbles cereal. Any cereal on the bottom has the potential to burn.
To Store: Keep these cookies in an airtight container for up to 5 days. As with most cookies, they will be best if you enjoy them right away!
To Freeze the Dough: Scoop the dough into balls and freeze on a pan for an hour. Then transfer the dough balls to a freezer bag and store for up to 1 month. Let the dough thaw before baking.
To Freeze the Cookies: Baked fruity pebbles cookies can be frozen for up to 1 month. I suggest letting them thaw at room temperature for an hour before digging in!
