Yield 42 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 cup softened butter
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup white granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1/3 cup chunky peanut butter
1/2 cup crushed potato chips
1/4 cup crumbled sugar cookies
1/2 cup assorted chocolate chips (I had an open bag of semi-sweet and an open bag of white chocolate)
Handful of Craisins
2 tablespoons rainbow sprinkles
1/2 cup chopped Samoa cookies
Coarse Salt

Steps:

In a mixer, whip together butter and shortening. Mix in sugars and baking soda until combined. Mix in eggs and vanilla until combined. Stir in flour slowly, 1/2 cup at a time. Mix in peanut butter until completely combined. In a separate bowl, mix together everything else. Stir mixture into the dough. Chill dough for at least 1 hour. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Roll medium sized dough balls and place them about 2 inches apart on a greased cookie sheet (or parchment paper). Sprinkle coarse salt on top of each dough ball. Bake for about 9 minutes. Let them cool for at least 2 minutes before serving.
