Ingredients
Scale
- 3/4 cup salted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1/4 cup granulated white sugar
- 2 egg yolks, at room temperature
- 2 tsp vanilla bean paste or extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup red and green M&M’s
- 1/3 cup white chocolate chips
- 1/3 cup pretzel pieces
- 1/3 cup potato chip pieces
- 2 tbsp red and green jimmies
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
- Add softened, salted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar to a large bowl. Cream the butter and sugars together with an electric mixer for two minutes, or until light and fluffy.
- Next, add in egg yolks and vanilla and mix on medium speed for two minutes, or until the mixture is pale in color and fluffy.
- Then add in flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Mix until combined.
- Add in the M&M’s, white chocolate chips, pretzel pieces, potato chip pieces and sprinkles. Gently fold in with a spatula until everything is combined.
- Scoop the dough into 20 balls. Arrange two inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
- *Optional* Add a few extra mix-ins on top of the scooped cookie dough balls. This will give you cookies as pictured. This is totally optional, but I think it makes the cookies look cute!
- Bake for 10-12 minutes. (10 for chewier centers, 12 for crisper edges.)
- *Optional* When the cookies are straight out of the oven, use a large circular cookie cutter to give them a perfect shape. Do this by swirling the cookie cutter around each cookie. This will help to push everything together into a perfect circle!
-
After baking, let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes. Then transfer to a cooling rack to cool for another 10 minutes.

Store leftovers in an air tight container for up to three days.
