Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

- Gently fold in the M&M’s, white chocolate chips, pretzel pieces, potato chip pieces, and sprinkles until evenly distributed.
- Portion the dough into 20 balls, spacing them about two inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
- If desired, sprinkle a few extra mix-ins on top of each cookie dough ball.
- Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes.
- Use a large circular cookie cutter to swirl around each cookie immediately after removing from the oven.
- Let cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely for about 10 minutes.
- Keep leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
