Kitchen Sink Cookies
Discover the delectable delight of kitchen sink cookies, a perfect blend of flavours and textures in every bite.
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 cup old-fashioned oats
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup crushed pretzels
- 1 cup shredded coconut
- ½ cup chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. This can be done with a hand mixer or stand mixer.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the oats, chocolate chips, crushed pretzels, shredded coconut, and chopped nuts (if using). Stir until all ingredients are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Drop rounded tablespoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The cookies will still be soft in the centre but will firm up as they cool.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
