Calories: 250kcal
Ingredients
- 2 ¾ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled (do not add hot butter to the dough)
- ⅔ cup granulated sugar
- ⅔ cup light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 ⅓ cup M&M candies, separated
- ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350° and have ready a baking sheet lined with either parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- Add the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar to a large mixing bowl and mix on medium-high speed for no less than 2 minutes, until it begins to look like a paste.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well and scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl after each addition. Then, add the vanilla and mix to combine.
- Add the dry ingredient and mix on low until evenly incorporated. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl again and mix. Add 1 cup of the M&M candies and the chocolate chips. Mix once more.
- Scoop generous tablespoon-sized mounds onto the baking sheet, spacing each cookie about 2" apart, and bake for 10-12 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and carefully press a few of the remaining M&M candies into the top of the baked cookies. Allow to cool on the baking sheet at least 10-15 minutes before serving.
