Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Christmas Kitchen Sink Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the salted butter, light brown sugar, and white sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy (about 2 minutes).
  3. Add the egg yolks and vanilla paste (or extract) to the mixture and mix on medium speed for another 2 minutes until fluffy.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
  5. Fold in the M&M's, white chocolate chips, pretzel pieces, potato chip pieces, and jimmies, ensuring even distribution.
  6. Using a cookie scoop, portion out 20 balls of dough, placing them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, aiming for chewy centers (10 minutes) or crisper edges (12 minutes).
  8. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
