RICE KRISPIES Cookies

By , About.com Guide

Not your traditional oatmeal cookie—an even better one! RICE KRISPIES add that extra crunch and the coconut supplies extra sweetness. If you want to really take them over the top, add chopped nuts and/or raisins. Makes about 21/2 dozen. Copyright 2006 by Kellogg NA Co.
