Giant Party Cookies (Printable Version)

# What You Need:

→ Base Dough

01 - 170 g unsalted butter, softened
02 - 150 g light brown sugar
03 - 100 g granulated sugar
04 - 1 large egg
05 - 1 large egg yolk
06 - 2 tsp vanilla extract
07 - ½ tsp salt

→ Dry Ingredients

08 - 280 g all-purpose flour
09 - 1 tsp baking soda
10 - ½ tsp baking powder

→ Add-ins

11 - 100 g white chocolate chips
12 - 100 g semi-sweet chocolate chips
13 - 60 g rainbow sprinkles (jimmies style preferred)

# Steps to Follow:

01 - In a large bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and creamy, about 2 minutes.
02 - Add the egg, egg yolk, vanilla, and salt. Beat until well combined.
03 - In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and baking powder.
04 - Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips and sprinkles.
05 - Divide dough into 8 large balls (about 100 g each) and place on a lined baking sheet. Chill for 30 minutes.
06 - Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F).
07 - Bake chilled dough balls spaced well apart for 13–15 minutes, until golden around the edges but soft in the center.
08 - Let cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a rack to cool completely.

# Additional Notes:

01 - For gooey centers, underbake slightly and let finish setting on the baking sheet.
02 - Customize with M&Ms, nuts, or seasonal sprinkles.
03 - Dough can be frozen for up to 2 months—bake from frozen with an extra 2–3 minutes.
