Lucky Charm Sugar Cookies
Description
These sugar cookies start by creaming melted butter with brown and white sugars, then adding vanilla and egg before mixing in flour, baking powder, and salt to achieve a dough with a sand-like texture. The dough incorporates white chocolate chips and Lucky Charms cereal and marshmallows, which add bursts of sweetness and a playful feel. Chilling the dough firms it for shaping.
The cookies are scooped and gently flattened before baking, with extra marshmallows pressed on top for a colorful look and chewy texture. Baking at 350°F yields cookies with a thick, soft structure and slightly crisp edges if desired.
These cookies make for a fun, sweet treat suitable for casual occasions or themed events, combining familiar cereal flavors with a traditional cookie base.
Storage recommendations include keeping them in an airtight container with a piece of bread to maintain chewiness, or loosely covered to retain the classic marshmallow crunch. Avoid leaving cookies on hot pans after baking to prevent overcooking.
Ingredients
- 1 tick butter melted
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup white sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 egg
- 1 ⅓ - 1 ½ cup all-purpose flour see note in step 3
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ⅓ cup white chocolate chips
- ⅓ cup Lucky Charms marshmallows
- ⅓ cup Lucky Charms cereal
- ⅓ cup mini marshmallow regular
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, melt butter.
- Stir in brown sugar, white sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix together fervently until combined the mix in the egg.
- Add in flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix together until cookie dough texture forms. NOTE: if the batter is too soft or the butter isn’t whisked enough, you may need to add another 2 tbsp - ¼ cup of flour. The mixed batter of wet and dry ingredients batter should be a we sand texture.
- Add all of the mix-ins to the bowl except the lucky charm marshmallows. Fold together.
- Stir in white chocolate chips and Lucky Charm Marshmallows.
- Preheat oven to 350°F and chill the dough for 20-30 minutes.
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Use a 1.5 T cookie scoop to scoop dough onto prepared baking sheets. Gently press down so they’re a thick dish cookie instead of a round ball. Press extra Lucky Charms marshmallows into the top of the scooped cookie dough balls (the colorful marshmallow bits help create a more visually festive cookie).
- Place cookies on a baking sheet. They won't expand much while baking (if they're chilled).
- Bake for 9-11 minutes. The edges of the cookies will be golden and the center will look slightly doughy. If needed, use a cup placed over ‘shake’ the cookie back into a circle shape if they’ve expanded too much while baking.
- Let the cookies cool a bit (if the centers are still unstable) before removing them to a wire cooling rack / cooler surface. Enjoy!
Notes
- Store cookies in an airtight container with a piece of bread to keep them soft and chewy for up to 5 days.
- For crunchier cereal marshmallows, cover cookies loosely with plastic wrap or foil instead of airtight storage.
- Remove cookies from the baking sheet promptly after baking to avoid overcooking from residual heat.
