Hipsters
2 & 1/4 cups unbleached, all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup (2 sticks) salted butter
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 TBSP light corn syrup
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 cup Hershey's Milk Chocolate Chips
1 cup Hershey's Special Dark Chocolate Chips
1/2 cup butterscotch chips
3/4 cup Heath toffee bits
Butter Snap (or any salted) pretzels
Preheat oven to 375. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, soda and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream the butter, sugars, and corn syrup together until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs and vanilla. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed.
In 3 additions, add the flour, beating on low until combined.
{You know you want a spoonful, or seven, of that dough. Go ahead.}
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Using a 2 tablespoon cookie scoop, dollop the dough onto the sheets. Bake for approximately 12 minutes; the edges will be done, but the centers may look slightly underbaked.
Remove from the oven and place a pretzel in the center of each cookie, or use chopped pretzels. Let cool on the cookie sheet for a couple of minutes, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
Yield? Well, if I hadn't eaten copious amounts of the dough straight out of the bowl, I'd have a better answer for you, but I'd say...a couple dozen.
(All recipes, options of Hershey's products, and hip circumference are my own.)
Heading over for the recipe now. These look fabulous!

ReplyDeleteLove your definition of Hipsters. Lol I live amongst so many hipsters that seem too cool for school many days. I much prefer your version :)
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like it's got everything but the kitchen sink in there! I adore white chocolate, so I would definitely throw some of that in as well. Love the idea!

ReplyDeleteI snorted when I read this. Great title for these cookies. Yum!
ReplyDeleteOh goodness, I love the name for these cookies. I think I might need to call all cookies hipsters. Maybe also buttsters and thighsters...
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet idea (literally) and so prettily presented!
ReplyDeleteCute name and recipe--I'm totally taking a batch of these to the Berkeley streets and passing them out unironically to passerby hipsters...
ReplyDeleteI wonder if you can crumble pretzel bits into the batter with the other sweet topping ingredients?
ReplyDeletelol you crack me up! Love this cookie!

ReplyDeleteyummy, but I felt hipper just looking at them;p
ReplyDeleteOh. Em. Gee. I literally have everything for these cookies except the dark chocolate chips. (I went a little crazy with the variety of my Christmas cookies this year.) I don't have Butter Snap pretzels, but like you said, the others will do. I will have to try these this weekend!
ReplyDeleteI;m looooving these hipster cookies! You never cease to amaze me Bridget!!!!
ReplyDeleteI have all the ingredients, yay! Like I need one more kind of cookie to make....but hey, there's always room for more :)
ReplyDeleteYou crack me up. I think I prefer your type of hipster to the cultural one at the moment. Although... my skinny jeans won't fit long after a few of these!
ReplyDeleteHaha what a great name for these cookies. They just need some large black rimmed prescription free glasses.
ReplyDeleteOh boy, these sound amazing!! Love the name too! Merry Christmas!!

Love this so much, Bridget!! I'm so obsessed with baking with pretzels lately...this is totally up my alley! :)
ReplyDeleteI made them for my husband's coworkers and my daughter's teachers. What a hit! I then realized there were none left for us, so I made another batch. They are decadent. Thanks!
