Instructions
Melt the butter and let it cool for about 20 minutes.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In another bowl, whisk the melted butter with both sugars until smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla, mixing until incorporated.
Fold the flour mixture into the wet ingredients using a rubber spatula until just combined. Don't overmix.
Stir in the M&M's, white chocolate chips, broken pretzels, crushed potato chips, and holiday sprinkles.
Using a 1 1/2 oz ice cream scoop, portion the cookie dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Refrigerate the scooped dough for about an hour, or freeze for about 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Arrange cookie dough balls on a parchment-lined sheet pan and bake until golden, rotating halfway.
Once baked, use a large cookie cutter to nudge the cookies into a round shape. Add extra mix-ins on top while warm.
Notes
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-4 days. Dough can be refrigerated up to a week or frozen longer.
