M&M Cookies with Chocolate Chips – Easy M&M Cookie Recipe
M&M Cookies with chocolate chips- an easy recipe for perfectly chewy, homemade M&M cookies
Ingredients
3/4 cup salted butter
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 egg, plus 1 egg yolk
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups all purpose flour
(1) 10oz sharing size bag of M&Ms (or about 1.25 cups)
3/4 cup mini chocolate chips, plus extra for topping your cookies
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- With an electric mixer, cream together butter and sugars in a mixing bowl until it is light and fluffy
- Add in eggs and vanilla extract, mix until combined
- In a separate bowl, combine dry ingredients
- Add dry ingredients into the butter and sugar mixture. Mix until just combined
- Fold in M&Ms and mini chocolate chips. Save some of each for topping your cookies with!
- Using an ice cream sized scoop, scoop 5 cookies to a baking sheet. Top the dough balls with extra chocolate chips and M&Ms.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes. You want to pull the cookies out of the oven before they look like they’re done. They will continue to bake on the baking sheet as they cool. I prefer pulling them out at 10 minutes, and letting them rest on the cookie sheet. This results in a super chewy cookie that stays soft for days!
- If you’re making smaller cookies, bake them for 8 minutes.
- Using a round cookie cutter, a cup, or a spoon, shape the edges of the cookies so they’re perfectly round. Top cookies with a sprinkle of coarse sea salt (optional but encouraged!). Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 10-15 minutes before transferring them to parchment paper to cool completely.
- Enjoy!
