Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup brown sugar packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ cups mini M&M’s

Method
 

  1. Preheat your Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Cream the Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Next, mix in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, until well combined.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
  5. Fold in M&M’s: Gently fold in the mini M&M’s, reserving some for topping if you like.
  6. Scoop the Dough: Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, drop equal portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, ensuring space between each cookie.
  7. Bake: Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden but the centers still look slightly soft.
  8. Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
