1 cups 210g all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder

1 cups M&M candies
1 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
cup salted peanuts, roughly chopped
Instructions
1. Prepare the Dough
Mix Wet Ingredients: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or in a large bowl with a handheld mixer, beat the unsalted butter on medium speed until smooth and creamy.
Add Peanut Butter and Vanilla: Mix in the creamy peanut butter and vanilla extract until smooth, about 2 minutes.
Add Sugars: Gradually add the light brown sugar and granulated sugar, beating until light and fluffy, scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed, about 2 minutes.
Incorporate Eggs: Add the large eggs and egg yolk, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Mix Dry Ingredients: Turn off the mixer. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, old-fashioned oats, quick oats, baking soda, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in Add-Ins: Turn off the mixer and use a spatula to fold in the M&M candies, semi-sweet chocolate chips, and salted peanuts.
Chill the Dough: Cover the bowl and place it in the fridge for 30 minutes or up to 2 days.
2. Bake the Cookies
Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 350F 175C. Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
Scoop Cookie Dough: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, scoop two tablespoon-sized mounds of dough onto the prepared cookie sheets, leaving a few inches between each cookie to allow for spreading. Gently press down on each cookie ball to slightly flatten it.
Bake: Bake one tray at a time for 12 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the centers have set. If any edges spread while baking, use a spatula to gently press them back in immediately after removing them from the oven.
3. Cool and Serve
Cool the Cookies: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
