Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare two baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter with brown sugar and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add in the large egg and vanilla extract to the creamed mixture and beat until fully incorporated.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing until no flour streaks remain.
  6. Fold in the Rice Krispies and mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  7. Drop rounded portions of dough onto prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each scoop.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are golden brown and the centers look set.
