Add dry ingredients a bit at a time to wet ingredients. Mix until combined.

Drop in your mix-ins, stir gently to combine.

Using a cookie scoop, drop cookie dough in golf-ball sized portions on prepared pans. Leave about 3 inches between cookies.

Allow cookies to cool about 3 minutes on the pan. Transfer to a wire rack and cool completely.
