M&M Cookie Recipe 🍪
Ingredients:
1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
¾ cup unsalted butter, softened
¾ cup brown sugar, packed
¼ cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup M&M's (plus extra for topping)
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions:
Preheat the oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Prepare the dry ingredients:
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Cream the butter and sugars:
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes). You can use an electric mixer for ease.
Add the eggs and vanilla:
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Mix in the dry ingredients:
Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Add M&M's and chocolate chips:
Fold in the M&M’s and chocolate chips (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Scoop the dough:
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Gently press a few extra M&M's on top for a fun, colorful look.
Bake the cookies:
Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the center is still soft. Do not overbake! The cookies will continue to cook on the sheet once removed from the oven.
Cool and enjoy:
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your sweet, chewy M&M cookies!
