- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

Instructions
Let’s walk through the simple steps to bake these cheerful cookies. Remember, cooking is an adventure, so don’t be afraid to make it your own!
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
- Gently fold in the Fruity Pebbles, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Drop heaping tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the centers are set. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
