  • ½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 ½ cups (310 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp cinnamon (optional, for a holiday touch)
  • 1 cup (180 g) semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1: Preheat and Prepare

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2: Make the Cookie Dough

  1. In a large bowl, beat together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 2 minutes).
  2. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
  4. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.

Step 3: Add the Mix-Ins

  1. Gently fold in the chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, toffee bits, M&M’s, crushed pretzels, and holiday sprinkles.

Step 4: Scoop and Bake

  1. Scoop 1 ½ tbsp-sized dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart.
  2. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers remain soft.
  3. Remove from oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy!

  1. Serve warm or at room temperature with a glass of milk for the ultimate holiday cookie experience! 🎅🏻🥛🍪

Notes

  • Make it crunchier: Add chopped pecans or almonds for extra texture.
  • Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
