Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour, fluffed, spooned, and leveled
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, at cool room temperature
- 1 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups M&M’s, plus more for pressing on top of baked cookies
- Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling on cookies
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat baking mat. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, combine the butter and sugars together until creamy and smooth. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula, as necessary.
- Add the eggs and vanilla extract and mix until combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula.
- Add the dry ingredients and mix on low until just combined. Don’t over mix. It is ok if there are still a few flour streaks left. Add the M&M’s and stir with a spatula.
- Use a cookie scoop or roll the cookie dough into balls, about 2 tablespoons per cookie. Place on prepared baking sheet, 2-inches apart. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until cookies are slightly golden brown around the edges, but still soft in the center. Don’t over bake.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle with flaky sea salt. Gently press a few M&Ms on top of the warm cookies. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Transfer to a cooling rack and cool completely.
Notes
- You don’t have to chill the cookie dough, but you certainly can. If I have time, I always like to because I like to let the flavors develop. Cover and chill for up to 72 hours in the fridge.
- Baked cookies will keep in an airtight container on the counter for up 3 days. You can also freeze the cookie dough and baked cookies for up to 3 months.
- If you want super soft M&M cookies, you can add 2 teaspoons cornstarch to the dry ingredients. Also, make sure you don't over bake the cookies.
