Chocolate M&M's Cookies
Report
Double chocolate cookies meet M&M's candies. Chocolate M&Ms Cookies are decadently rich with a pop of color. With lots of chocolatey flavor and a satisfying crunch from the candy coating, these cookies are perfect with a glass of milk!

Ingredients
- 1 cup melted butter
- 1 cup light brown sugar packed
- 2 large eggs
- ½ teaspoon almond extract
- 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup Ghirardelli unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 package milk chocolate chips, divided 11 oz
- 1 package mini M&M’s, divided 10 oz
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine melted butter with brown sugar. Mix until completely blended. Add in eggs, almond extract, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
- Add flour, cocoa powder, kosher salt, and baking soda to mixing bowl. Beat just until incorporated. Fold in the milk chocolate chips and mini M&M’s. Reserve about a ¼ cup of each for later.
- Using a 2 Tablespoon cookie scoop, drop dough two inches apart on prepared cookie sheet. Using the reserved milk chocolate chips and mini M&M’s, press 5 or 6 on top of each cookie before baking.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes. The cookies will be slightly underbaked, but not runny. Allow to cool on baking sheet 5-10 minutes before moving to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Storage- store cookies in airtight container at room temperature after they have cooled completely. Freeze for up to 3 months. You can also freeze cookie dough balls instead of the baked cookies.
- Cocoa Powder- I love the Ghirardelli unsweetened cocoa powder because of it's rich flavor. Hershey's special dark is delicious as well. Do not choose off brand or Nestle as I feel like they leave a bitter taste in this cookie recipe.
- Substitutions- I choose milk chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet because of the large amount of cocoa powder. Dark chocolate chips are also a delicious option.
