Ingredients
- 1 cup 2 sticks/16 tbsp unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1 cup brown sugar packed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs room temperature
- 2 tsp 10 mL vanilla extract
- 2 cups 280 g all-purpose flour, sifted
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 2 cups old fashioned oats
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup holiday M&Ms
- 1 cup thin pretzels chopped
- 1/2 cup white chocolate bar roughly chopped
- 1/4 cup holiday sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
- Cream both granulated and light brown sugars and the unsalted butter with an electric beater on low speed until the butter is light in color and fluffy.
- Add the eggs and vanilla extract until well incorporated.
- Use a baking spatula to mix in the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and kosher salt into the wet ingredients with a silicone spatula until the flour is just barely fully mixed in.
- Add all of your mix-ins and use the baking spatula to carefully fold them into the cookie dough evenly.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill the dough for at least 1 hour up to overnight. Take the cookie dough out of the fridge and let warm up for 10-15 minutes before continuing.
- Use a cookie scoop to make even cookie balls and place them onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper a few inches away from each other.
- Bake each batch for 10-12 minutes, rotating the pan 180 degrees halfway through (at 5-6 minutes) to ensure even baking. Do not overbake! They should be very puffy looking with golden brown edges.
- Let them cool for 5 minutes on the pan, then transfer them to cool for 10 minutes on a wire rack.
- Keep in an airtight container and they'll stay fresh for at least 3-5 days.

Notes
- Use a large cookie scoop and place the cookie dough balls about 4-5 inches apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-17 minutes, until the edges of the cookies are golden brown.
- Let them cool on the tray for 10 minutes before moving to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Makes 16 giant cookies.
- Keep the cookies in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
- To freeze, place the raw dough balls on a tray lined with parchment paper, freeze in your freezer, then place the frozen balls in a large freezer-safe zip-top bag for up to 6 months.
- When you're ready to have some cookies, place them on the prepared baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees for 14-15 minutes.
- Let cool for up to 10 minutes on the tray before transfering to a wire rack to cool completely.
