PREP TIME 10 MINUTES COOK TIME 8 MINUTES TOTAL TIME 18 MINUTES SERVINGS 24 COOKIES

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup  butter softened
  • ¾ cup  brown sugar
  • 1 cup  sugar
  • 2  eggs
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3 ½ cups  flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup mini or regular sized m&ms
  • 1 cup of chocolate chips
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line two baking sheets with parchment paper (optional but recommended!)
  • In a medium sized mixing bowl cream together cream butter and sugars with an electric mixer.
  • Add eggs and vanilla and beat until fluffy.
  • Add in flour, baking soda, and salt and beat until combined.
  • Add the chocolate chips and M&M’s and stir in by hand.
  • Using a 1 inch cookie scoop, scoop out the dough and drop onto prepared baking sheet. Bake for 8 minutes or until almost set through the center — they’ll look a little glossy and that’s okay.
  • Remove from oven and let cool several minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool.

The Cookies won’t look quite done but the trick is not to over-bake so they stay chewy.
