Method
 

  1. Instructions
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Mix until smooth.
  5. Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract. Mix until fully incorporated.
  6. Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and fold gently until combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Fold in the chocolate chips, white chocolate chunks, sprinkles, and optional peppermint candy.
  8. Scoop about 2 tablespoons of dough per cookie and place onto the baking sheet. Add extra chocolate chips on top.
  9. Bake for 9–12 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden but the centers look soft.
  10. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes
For thicker cookies, chill the dough for 20 minutes.
