Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and position your oven rack in the center.

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

Add the large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the pure vanilla extract until smooth.

In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to the butter and sugar mixture.

Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed.

Roll portions of the dough into balls and coat each in Rice Krispies cereal.

Place the coated dough balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and slightly flatten them. Bake for 23-25 minutes.

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
