Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter 2 sticks room temp
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup white sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 2 ½ cups flour
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp baking soda
  • 1 ¼ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 ¼ cup butterscotch chips
  • 1 cup pretzels chopped
  • Flakey sea salt
  • Mini Pretzels whole

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Prep 2 baking sheets with parchment and set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat butter and both sugars for about 3 minutes. Add in vanilla and mix.
  • Next add in the eggs and egg yolk, one at a time, beating after each addition.
  • In a separate bowl, combine flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda and whisk together. Once combined, slowly add into the wet mixture and stir.
  • Add in the chocolate chips, butterscotch chips and pretzels and combine using a spatula. (So the pretzels don't get broken up too much!)
  • Scoop balls of dough on prepared baking sheet. Using slightly damp fingertips, press dough down and out into disks. Sprinkle on some flakey sea salt and press 1 pretzel into the top of each cookie.
  • Bake for 11-12 minutes or until the edges turn a golden brown. Let cool on cooling rack. Enjoy!
