Krispie Oatmeal Chip Cookies

Krispie Oatmeal Chip Cookies
1/2 cup butter or hard margarine, softened
1/2 cup granulated (white) sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose (plain) flour
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup crisp rice cereal
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350F. Lightly grease or line cookie sheets.
In a large bowl, cream the butter and both sugars. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Add remaining ingredients, mix well. Drop dough by tablespoons onto prepared cookie sheets. Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden. You can bake these shorter for soft oatmeal cookies or longer for crispy cookies. Since "krispie" is right in the title, I recommend baking crispy cookies. 
Recipe yields 30 cookies. I got 42 good-sized cookies. I baked most of mine for exactly 12 minutes, but I baked one batch for 15 minutes to get crispier cookies. Both are good. Recipe comes from RobinHood.ca.
