Ingredients

  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (milk, dark, or semi-sweet)
  • 1/2 cup butterscotch or toffee bits
  • 1 cup crushed pretzels
  • 1/2 cup crushed potato chips (optional)
  • 1/2 cup caramel bits or chopped soft caramels
  • Sea salt for sprinkling (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until creamy and fluffy.
  4. Add eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.
  5. Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
  6. Fold in chocolate chips, toffee bits, crushed pretzels, and any additional mix-ins such as potato chips or caramel pieces.
  7. Scoop about 2 tablespoons of dough per cookie and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden and centers remain soft.
  9. Remove from oven and sprinkle lightly with sea salt, if desired.
  10. Cool cookies on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Customize with your favorite mix-ins like nuts, candies, or dried fruit.
  • Chilling the dough for 30 minutes helps prevent excess spreading.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
  • Freeze dough or baked cookies for up to 2 months.
  • Reheat cookies briefly in the microwave for a fresh-baked texture.
