Kitchen Sink Cookies are filled with, well, everything but the kitchen sink! Chocolate chips, candies, nuts, pretzels and potato chips turn the classic chocolate chip cookie into a sweet-and-salty treat.
A few weeks ago I tried Kitchen Sink Cookies at a bakery. These little guys are cookies loaded up with candies like peanut butter cups and M&M’s and savory snacks like nuts, pretzels and potato chips.
Let’s just say I had to try making them myself. Immediately.
And then I had all these delicious things on hand, and I decided to see what happened when I threw these things into chocolate chip cookies.
Well, amazing things happened.
These Loaded Chocolate Chip Cookies have a higher ‘stuff’ to dough ratio, but that’s what makes them so loaded. They’re sweet and salty, soft and crunchy. A total treat.
I suggest you raid your pantry and the candy aisle and make them immediately! Happy weekend!
