I've been thinking this recipe idea through for a couple of weeks now and finally gave it a try. I love it when recipes come together as you envisioned them.
Nutella & Peanut Butter Cap'n Crunch Cookies
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup Nutella
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 cups flour
1 cup Peanut Butter Cap'n Crunch cereal
Combine butter, Nutella, sugar and brown sugar in a large mixing bowl.
Gradually add in eggs and vanilla. Stir in flour, baking soda and salt.
Gently fold in crushed Peanut Butter Cap'n Crunch cereal.
To easily crush cereal, place in a large plastic bag that has a plastic
zip lock and roll a rolling pin over.
Makes 50 cookies
What a fabulous recipe, looks absolutely delicious!
ReplyDeleteI've never had Cap'n Crunch cereal, is that crazy? But I want to and I want these cookies!
ReplyDeleteI hadn't had Cap'n Crunch (regular) in years and it never was a favorite. I tried the Peanut Butter one a month ago and snacked my way through an entire box. This recipe was from box #2.
DeleteOh. My. Goodness. This looks so good!
ReplyDeleteSuch an interesting pairing of ingredients. These sound delicious!!!
ReplyDeleteNutella makes everything right! These sound so delicious.
ReplyDeleteNutella is a wonderful ingredient and I can see how crispy the cookies turned out.
ReplyDeletethese sound delicious! I tried making capn crunch cookies with the crunchberries but they didnt turn out well, your version looks a million times better!
ReplyDeleteFinally an easy way to eat captain crunch! (It's too hard to eat as cereal, hurts my mouth!!) SOunds tasty :)
ReplyDeleteDoes it have a chewy consistency for the cookie or more crunchy? Either way the combo sounds amazing!
ReplyDeleteRight out of the oven they were soft and melted in your mouth. The next day they were like a crackle cookie and great with coffee I was told by a friend.
DeleteThese sound so interesting!! Loving the Captain Crunch add in!
ReplyDeleteTheeeeese are a few of my faaaavorite thiiiings! Hehe. Way to put some awesomeness into cookie form :)
ReplyDeleteI love Nutella and Nutella with everything. But can you tell me, is there a substitute I can use for Captain Crunch Cereal as I live in Italy and it's not for sale here?
ReplyDeleteDo you have any peanut butter cereals there? I tried googling and all I found is Cereali Pan di Stelle which looks like a cereal that would be fun to try in muffins.
DeleteHello, nice meeting you at food buzz. I'm now following your blog! The recipe looks simple enough to follow =)
ReplyDeleteThese look awesome! Love that you used Nutella and Cap'n Crunch. Yum!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comments everyone!
ReplyDeleteThe cereal is an interesting addition but what could be bad about Nutella and peanut butter?!
