Why are they called Kitchen Sink Cookies?
You might be wondering, what do these delicious looking cookies have to do with a kitchen sink? There is no resemblance to a sink, and they look to yummy to throw down the drain. So what is it? The thought behind this creative name is that these cookies incorporate everything in your kitchen except for the kitchen sink. As you have seen these cookies have not so traditional ingredients such as pretzels and potato chips. So essentially making some cookie dough and throwing in anything you can find in your kitchen to make a delectable and tasty treat!
How to make Kitchen Sink Cookies
Assemble your ingredients. For exact amounts see the recipe card below.
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt and set aside.
In your stand mixer beat the butter and both sugars until fluffy. Scrape down the bowl as needed.
Next, add in the egg and vanilla and mix together.
Then, add in your dry ingredients and mix until everything is combined.
Next, stir in the chocolate chips, toffee bits, potato chips, pretzels, and pecans by hand.
Roll into walnut sized balls (for extra yummy cookies roll them in a bowl full of extra toppings) and place on your prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool before transferring them.
Finally, serve and enjoy!
