Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup M&M candies (plus extra for topping)
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Dough
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Step 2: Add the Wet Ingredients
- Beat in eggs, one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract.
- Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just combined.
Step 3: Add the Chocolate & M&Ms
- Fold in chocolate chips and M&Ms until evenly distributed.
Step 4: Scoop & Bake
- Scoop dough into 1.5-inch balls and place them 2 inches apart on the baking sheet.
- Press a few extra M&Ms on top of each dough ball for a colorful finish.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers still look soft.
Step 5: Cool & Enjoy
- Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely (if you can wait that long!).
