What You’ll Need
Here are the ingredients you’ll need to make Frosted Flake White Chocolate Chip Cookies at home. See the recipe card located at the bottom of the post for full details.

- Brown Sugar– Use light brown sugar and make sure it’s packed when measuring.
- Egg– For consistency, I use large eggs for my baking.

- All-Purpose Flour– Flour is the main dry ingredient in the cookies.
- Salt– Use kosher salt or sea salt.

I love seeing what you come up with. How many ‘flop’ recipes do you make before coming up with such a good one?!
Oh Jenny, my kids would go nuts over these! I’m like you, we’d go through a box a day if we had Frosted Flakes in our house. We already do that with Frosted Mini Wheats 🙂 Love the idea of using the frosted flakes in a cookie. Creative!
What an interesting combo! They look great!!
I LOVE frosted flakes! Totally making these!
These sound like so much fun!!!!
I’m going to have to try them the next time I buy a box.
OMG these look Grrrreat! (couldn’t resist)
I can’t keep that cereal in the house either, due to the magically disappearing cereal act that seems to happen afterwards. But these look so amazing. White chocolate is the perfect pairing!
These look so good will make them this weekend for a volleyball end-of-year party! Thanks!!
Whaaat. That is an awesome idea! These look SO delish!
My parents left a big box of Frosted Flakes at our house after visiting this weekend, and I was literally thinking this morning what creative dessert I could make out of them. This may be IT! 🙂 What great timing, Jenny!
My kids would love these cookies!!!
I truly need to try adding pudding mix into my cookie batter. This looks incredible, Jenny!
I love this! I love the addition of that added crunch that Tony the Tiger will deliver!
So much fun, what a great idea! 🙂
When my youngest daughter was in high school, she and her best friend came up with a recipe that used frosted flakes, peanut butter and chocolate chips. I think they just dumped it all in a bowl and microwaved it. It was so yummy and addicting. I think these cookies will be the same way – definitely will try them!
Was waiting for these!! AMAZING!! (you know we’re making them… ;-D ).
oh jenny!! What are you doing to me!!!???
Can’t even handle how amazing these sound
Yum…..trying to whittle down a little for summer so I was wondering if you substitute Special K for the Frosted Flakes does that make this a low cal cookie?
Haha, I think special K would be just fine as a substitute!
I would not have thought to use corn flakes in cookies but it sounds so good!
These would send me over the moon too!
How fun are these?! Definitely going to try these.. my husband will love them 🙂
I have been wanting to be the bigger person and not go for the “They’re GRRRReeat!!” Frosted Flakes tag line, but seriously they do look utterly GRREEATT!!
Haha! Glad you did 🙂
I don’t know about you, but I need those for breakfast.
Oh I loved Frosted Flakes as a kid! I’ll take two dozen, thank you!
I totally need these cookies – how fun!

White choco chip PUDDING cookies with Frosted Flakes…oh I bet that dough was so good! And that the cookies are even better 🙂
These cookies just put me over the moon because I am such a sugary cold cereal lover! I love that you tried the Frosted Flakes ice cream; I have been known to dump chocolate rice crispies onto my chocolate ice cream, while eating it, um, straight out of the tub. YIKES.
