Kitchen sink cookies are a one-bowl recipe filled with a ton of flavor. The chocolate-filled cookie is chewy, crunchy, and has a combination of sweet and salty flavors.
Everything But the Kitchen Sink Cookies

These are some of the most delicious cookies. They are just like Panera’s kitchen sink cookies. In fact, I bought one not long ago and it was absolutely delicious.
So, I thought, why can’t I make this at home? And, that’s what I did and so can you.
The fun thing about these cookies is that you can trade out ingredients. If you’d like to add butterscotch chips instead, you can do that. Feel free to experiment a little!

The large cookie is made up of toffee bits, semi-sweet and milk chocolate chips, and pretzels for a scrumptious dessert cookie that can’t be beat.
And, these will really impress at the yearly holiday cookie exchange.
