Ingredients
  

  • 6 ounces unsalted butter softened
  • ¾ cup light brown sugar packed
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large egg yolks
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat an oven to 350° F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.  
  • In the bowl of a mixer cream together the butter and both sugars.  Mix for approximately 6 minutes.  The mixture should be lighter in color and fluffy.

  • In a separate bowl combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, M&Ms, sprinkles and both chocolate chips.

  • Scoop out onto prepared baking sheets (1 ounce scoop or 2 rounded tablespoons) and bake for 10-12 minutes.  Enjoy!

Notes

For the perfect size, use a 1-ounce portion scoop or 2 rounded tablespoons for the cookies.  
If you want to make smaller cookies just use 1 rounded tablespoon per cookie.
