Step by Step Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Step 2
In a food processor pulse 1 1/2 cups Cap'n Crunch until finely ground. Set aside.
Step 3
Add the other 2 cups of Cap'n Crunch to the food processor and pulse for 1 or 2 seconds, just enough to roughly break up the pieces. They should be very coarse. Set aside.
Step 4
In the bowl of a stand mixer, fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar until smooth and pale in color, about 5 minutes Beat in vanilla and egg and continue beating until light and fluffy.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, whisk together baking soda, salt, flour and finely ground cereal.
Step 6
Reduce mixer speed to low and beat in the flour mixture until just combined. Gently stir in the coarse cereal by hand until combined.
Step 7
Separate the dough into 3 tablespoon sized balls. Place the balls 3 inches apart on a cookie sheet lined with parchment and bake for 10 - 12 minutes.
Step 8
Cool for 2 - 3 minutes and then transfer to a rack to completely cool.
