Ingredients
Scale
- 1 Stick Butter - softened
- 3/4 Cup Brown Sugar
- 1/4 Cup White Sugar
- 1 Egg
- 1 Teaspoon Vanilla
- 1 Cup Flour
- 1 Cup Old Fashion Oats
- 1/4 Teaspoon Salt
- 1/2 Teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1/2 Cup Potato Chips (1-2 handfuls)
- 1/2 Cup Mini Pretzels (1-2 handfuls)
- 1/2 Cup Reese's Peanut Butter Cups - halved
- 1/2 Cup Caramels - cut into halves or quarted (about 10 caramels)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a stand mixer cream the butter and both sugars for 3-5 minutes until light and fluffy.
- Add in the egg and vanilla and mix until just combined - being careful not to over mix.
- Add the flour, oatmeal, salt, and baking powder. Mix for about 30 seconds. The dough should not be fully combined. Just until about halfway mixed through.
- Add in the potato chips, mini-pretzels, halved Reese's cups, and caramel bits and finish mixing until it just comes together. The mixer will help crush the chips and pretzels and thoroughly combined everything.
- Using a cookie scoop, scoop out the dough onto a lined baking sheet.
- Place in the preheated oven for 11-12 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
