Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silpat mat and set aside.

Chop up the fruity pebble candy bars into chunks. Set aside.
Using a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes. Then add in the eggs, egg yolks and vanilla. Scrape sides of the large bowl as needed.
1 cup unsalted butter, cubed, cold (16 Tbsp.), 1 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 large eggs, 2 large egg yolks, 1 Tbsp. vanilla extract

Shape dough into ~8 large dough balls. Pour remaining fruity pebble cereal in a shallow bowl or dish and roll cookies in the cereal, slightly pressing cereal into the dough.
Place on prepared baking sheet and bake for ~10-12 minutes or until the edges look slightly golden.
Let cookies cool on the cookie sheet for 15 minutes and then transfer to a wire cooling rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
