Instructions

Preheat the oven and prepare baking sheets: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Cream butter and sugars: In a large bowl, cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Add eggs and vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract.
Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
Combine wet and dry ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
Add mix-ins: Fold in the white chocolate chips, candy-coated chocolates, and crushed cookies.
Form and bake: Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the baking sheets, top with Halloween sprinkles if desired, and bake for 10–12 minutes until lightly golden.
Cool and serve: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
