Chocolate Crunch Bar Cookies are rich with chocolatey flavor and made crunchy by the addition of puffed rice. Soft, perfectly baked cookies are made even more delicious by that satisfying crunch!

Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and granulated sugar until well combined.
- Whisk in the egg and vanilla and stir to combine.
- Add the flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda and stir until no large lumps remain.
- Gently fold in the chocolate chips and puffed rice-- you don’t want to smush the rice.
- Transfer the dough to the fridge to chill for 30 minutes.
- While it is cooling, preheat the oven to 350°F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Scoop 2-tablespoon-sized cookie dough balls onto the baking sheets about 2 inches apart. Bake until the cookies are set around the edges, but still slightly soft in the center, about 12 minutes.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet-- they will set as they cool. Then, transfer the cooled cookies to an airtight container.
Notes
- Storage: Store crunch bar cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or in the freezer for up to 1 month.
- Use a cookie dough scoop to make sure every cookie is the same size. This will help make sure they all bake evenly, and they'll all be picture perfect.
- When it comes to vanilla extract, always try to make sure you're getting pure extract, not an imitation. Pure extract has the best flavor.
