• 0.33 cup white sugar
• 0.33 cup brown sugar
• 1 egg egg
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon baking powder

• 1.25 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup rolled oats
• 1 cup jelly beans, cut in half

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Lightly grease two baking sheets to prevent sticking.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg, salt, baking soda, baking powder, and vanilla extract until well combined. Gradually stir in the flour and oats until just incorporated, then gently fold in the colorful jelly beans.
3. Drop rounded spoonfuls of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving approximately 2 inches between each cookie.
4. Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are a beautiful golden brown, approximately 9 to 10 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.
