Pretzel M&M Oatmeal Cookies

Wowzers!  These cookies look like they have everything but the kitchen sink thrown in there, but I am guessing they're pretty amazing to eat.  Here's the recipe, courtesy of www.bakersroyale.com:
Makes 31/2 dozen cookies | Preparation: Line bake sheet with parchment. Heat oven to 350 degrees F. 
  • ¾ cup unsalted butter
  • ¼ cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup sugar
  • ½ cup dark brown sugar
  • 11/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ¼ cup flour
  • 1 ½ cup oats, quick cooking
  • 1 9.90oz Bag of M&M Pretzel
Instructions: 
1. Melt and heat butter until it is brown and nutty. Set aside to cool slightly. 
2. Place softened cream cheese, egg, sugar, dark brown sugar, baking soda and salt in a mixing bowl fitted with a paddle attachment and mix on medium until mixture is fully combined and shiny, about 1-2 minutes. Add browned butter and mix to combine. Turn off mixer. 
3. Place flour and quick cooking oats in a bowl and whisk to combine. Use a sturdy spatula or wooden spoon to fold flour mixture into wet mixture and mix to combine. 
4. Using a meat tenderizer crush M&M Pretzel in a plastic bag and add to cookie dough and fold to combine. 
5. Scoop one heaping tablespoon of cookie dough onto parchment lined baked sheet. Bake at 350 degrees F for 10-12 minutes or until bottoms of cookies are golden brown. 
 Cookies will keep 2-3 days in a tightly sealed container.
