Confetti Compost Cookies

My attempts at the craziest cookies on Pinterest.

1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) of unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1 cup loosely packed brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg + 1 egg yolk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup crushed salt and vinegar potato chips
3/4 cup chocolate chunks
1/2 cup crushed salted pretzels
1/3 cup graham cracker crumbs
1/3 cup chopped heath bar
1/3 cup peanut butter chips
1/3 cup assorted sprinkles
1/2 tablespoon coffee grounds (yes, actual grounds!)

I 1/2'd all the ingredients and it made 19 pretty big cookies. 

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. In a bowl, mix together flour, baking soda and salt, then set aside.

In another bowl, whisk the cooled butter and sugars until they are combined. Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla and stir until mixed and smooth. Gradually add in dry ingredients and mix with a spoon until a dough forms – it will look crumbly at first, but it will come together. I even used my hands to help at one point. Fold in all of your add-in's here, using a spoon and also your hands to bring it together. I literally smashed the ingredients into the dough.

Roll dough into 1 1/2-inch balls and place on a nonstick baking sheet (I actually used this method of stacking the dough) about 2 inches apart. Bake for 9-12 minutes, or until the middles are just set. Don’t over bake! Let cool almost completely

[recipe idea from the milk cookbook, recipe slightly adapted from giant rainbow cookies].

Use the star-shaped sprinkles.

I also (accidentally) put in at least twice the amount of coffee grounds. So I am changing the name to "Crazy Girl Cookies."

The original recipe says to bake at 325F for 9-12 minutes. 

They didn't really look "done" until like 17 minutes.

They are a little cripsier than I usually like cookies so maybe try 15 minutes. 

They REALLY hold their shape. 

These would be really cute for a birthday party. 

Best made while listening to the Jose Gonzalez Pandora station.
