The recipe was called Marshmallow Pebbles Slabs and originally called for Marshmallow Pebbles for the cereal. Well, I don't think that cereal is being made any more...at least I couldn't find it at my grocery store. It's hard to tell from the picture if the cereal is kind of like lucky charms...it looks sort of like fruity pebbles, only white...kind of like Rice Krispies with marshmallows in it. Anyhow...I substituted Cocoa pebbles and it came out great. I think next time I'll try Lucky Charms. I've renamed them Flinstone Slab Cookies...they are delicious.
Flinstone Slab Cookies
1 Cup Flour
1/2 tsp. Baking Soda
1/2 tsp. Salt
1 stick butter, softened
1/3 Cup packed Brown Sugar
1/3 Cup Granulated Sugar
1 Egg
1 tsp. Vanilla
1/2 Cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (I used the mini chips)
4 cups Miniature Marshmallows
2 Cups Cocoa Pebbles or other cereal, divided
Heat oven to 350. Combine Flour, Salt, and baking soda. Beat butter and sugars until light and creamy. Add egg and vanilla. Gradually add flour mixture, beating well. Stir in chocolate chips and 1 cup of the cereal. Spread into greased 9 x 13 baking pan.
Bake on center rack for 18-20 minutes or until lightly golden. Sprinkle evenly with marshmallows, return pan to oven. Bake 2-3 minutes longer or until marshmallows are puffed. Immediately sprinkle with remaining cereal. Press lightly into marshmallows, using the back of a wooden or large spoon. Cool in pan on wire rack. Cut into slabs.
YUM... I really was not in the mood for sweets this evening, but I wanted to try just a taste to see if the recipe was good enough to post on the blog...well, I had one bite, and then another, then another.....so good.
