If you don't have time to let your dough chill, preheat your oven from the start to 375 °F
If you have time to chill your dough, skip the preheating step until you are closer to putting the cookies into the oven.
Mix the flour, baking soda, and salt together in a mixing bowl. Put to the side.
Cream the butter, white sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla together in another mixing bowl.
Add the eggs, one at a time. Be sure to mix the egg with the butter mixture well before adding the next.
Slowly add the dry flour mixture to the wet mixture. Once combined add in your chocolate chips, m&ms, and crushed pretzels pieces. Mix well to spread the different ingredients throughout the dough evenly.
Put the mixing bowl, covered in the fridge to chill for 30 minutes.
After 15 minutes of your dough's chill time, preheat your oven to 375 °F
Once the 30 minutes of chill time are up and your oven is preheated, scoop 1 tablespoon of dough to form each cookie on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Be sure to leave space between the cookies.
Bake the cookies for 10-13 minutes. Be sure to watch the cookies and remove them when they are golden brown.
As soon as you remove your cookies from the oven add additional chocolate chips, m&ms, soft caramel, and some course sea salt on top before allowing the cookies to cool.
Notes
If you prefer bigger or smaller cookies, adjust the cooking time.
