Ingredients

Servings
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour properly measured
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 ½ cups M&Ms
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips optional

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F.
  2. Microwave the butter for about 40 seconds. Butter should be completely melted but shouldn't be hot.
  3. In a large bowl, mix butter with the sugars until well-combined.
  4. Stir in vanilla and egg until incorporated.
  5. Add the flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix until just combined. Dough should be soft and a little sticky but not overly sticky.
  6. Stir in M&Ms and chocolate chips, if using.
  7. Scoop out 1.5 tablespoons of dough (medium cookie scoop) and place 2 inches apart on the baking sheet.
  8. Bake for 7-10 minutes, or until cookies are set. They will be puffy and still look a little underbaked in the middle.

Notes

  • Be sure to fluff and then scoop and sweep to measure the flour. Too much flour will result in a dry or doughy cookie.
  • Or 1/4 teaspoon table salt
  • Don't over-bake the cookies, or you won't end up with soft cookies. Slightly underbaking the cookies will give you soft cookies that stay soft.
