Ingredients
  

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 cup brown sugar, packed

1/2 cup granulated sugar

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 cup cocoa powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1 1/2 cups Lucky Charms cereal

Extra Lucky Charms for decoration (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

    Cream the Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy (about 3-4 minutes).

      Add Eggs and Vanilla: Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then stir in the vanilla extract until thoroughly combined.

        Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.

          Combine Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

            Fold in Chocolate Chips and Cereal: Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and Lucky Charms cereal until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

              Scoop the Cookies: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving enough space between each cookie to allow for spreading.

                Decorate: If desired, press a few extra Lucky Charms on top of each cookie for a colorful finish.

                  Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft. Be careful not to overbake.

                    Cool: Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to wire racks to cool completely.

                      Enjoy: Once completely cool, enjoy your delicious Lucky Charms Chocolate Cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
