I am exceedingly fond of the crunchy jimmies from Fancy Sprinkles.) These sprinkle sugar cookies are definitely the way to go, especially if you can source good sprinkles. Unless you have tiny chocolate chips, however I don’t think it works. (Other versions of cookie cereal use chocolate chip cookies – or even storebought cookie dough, which is really not the point. First, your teeth bite into the satisfyingly crunchy exterior of the cookie, and then there’s an additional layer of crunch when they encounter a sprinkle. My version is made with tiny sugar cookies studded with sprinkes, which is absolutely critical to the fun. It’s sweet and incredibly fun to eat, with layers of texture. I was just going to call it dessert, not breakfast, and justify it to myself that way.Īnd, as desserts go, cookie cereal is definitely a worthwhile indulgence. So when I woke up from a dream about cookie cereal, I was pretty determined to come up with a homemade version.

#COOKIE CRISP WIZARD FULL#
(Or Diet Coke, for that matter, which is also full of chemicals and artifical ingredients. Even a casual reader of this blog will deduce that I have a massive sweet tooth and despite my age and slowing metabolism, I will never, ever give up dessert. Have some eggs, a smoothie, cold pizza or really anything else.īut while sugar cereal has no place in my house, dessert definitely does. Sugar cereal is terrible for you: full of, well, sugar and chemicals and artifical ingredients. (Indeed, my kids only get sugar cereal at summer camp.)Īnd that’s correct. (As a result, ready access to Lucky Charms was one of the highlights of my college dining hall.) And you yourself have grown up to be a parent that doesn’t allow your kids to have sugar cereal either. If you are at all like me, you probably grew up with parents that did not allow you to have sugar cereal except on very rare, special occasions.

Cookie cereal, on the other hand, has a proven track record there’s already a store-bought version of it. Isn’t the point of pancakes that they are soft and fluffy? Add milk to something soft and fluffy and what you are going to get is.

Next came pancake cereal and finally, cookie cereal.Ĭookie cereal strikes me as about a million times better than pancake cereal. First there was dalgona coffee then sourdough bread. But I do live with two teenagers – one of whom made a TikTok video that went viral and then was the subject of an article in her school paper about students grappling with TikTok fame – so I do hear about the quarantine food crazes. There may have been another reason I had cookie cereal on my mind: apparently, it’s the latest social media food trend.
