Ingredients
- 1 tick unsalted butter melted
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup white sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 egg
- 1 ⅔ cup all purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- pinch salt
- ⅔ cup pastel M&Ms
- ⅓ cup pastel M&Ms crushed
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment.
- In a large bowl, add the butter and cover with a paper towel. Melt in 30 second intervals or until it’s completely melted.
- Pour in both sugars and vanilla. Mix until completely combined (this will take a few minutes depending on how melted the butter is).
- Fold in the whole egg. Scrape the sides of the both to make sure all of the wet ingredients are mixed well.
- Add in the dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix together again. Note: really important to scrape the sides since not using an electric mixer here. If the batter is TOO soft and doesn’t have enough structure, add another 2 tbsp of flour. Mixed batter should resemble this texture:
- Fold in the chopped and full Pastel M&Ms.
- Use a 1 or 1.5 tbsp medium cookie scoop to scoop dough onto prepared baking sheet. Gently press down so the cookie is a thick disk or puck cookie instead of a round ball. Press extra m&ms into the top of the cookies (this helps create a prettier cookie 🙂).
- Place 6-8 cookies on the baking sheet. They will expand during baking so try to leave at least 2” around each one.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the edges of the cookies are golden brown while the middles are still slightly underbaked.
- Use a glass or mason jar ring placed over the cookie to ‘shake’ the cookie back into a circular shape if they’ve expanded while baking.
- Let the cookies cool for a couple of minutes on the pan before moving them to a wire rack. Enjoy warm with flakey sea salt or allow to cool. Both are divine.
Notes
- Store your cookies in an airtight container with a slice of sandwich bread in the container. This helps keep the cookies super soft!
