Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 sticks softened unsalted butter
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • ¾ cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoons vanilla
  • 2 ½ cups all purpose flour
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips or chunks
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips or chunks
  • 1 cup candy covered chocolates
  • 1 cup peanut butter chips
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°.
  2. Add the butter and sugars to a stand mixer with the paddle attachment and mix on medium to high speed for 5-7 minutes or until light and fluffy.
  3. Add 1 egg at a time until combined, and then add in the vanilla.
  4. In a separate bowl mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Then add it to the mixer on low speed in 3 batches until mixed in. Stop the mixer in between, adding the flour to scrape the sides.
  5. Remove the bowl and fold the chocolate chips, candy, peanut butter chips, and walnuts with a rubber spatula until completely mixed in.
  6. using a 1/4 cup scooper (#16 scoop), scoop out the dough onto cookie sheet trays 4 to 5 inches apart from one another to allow them to spread out. It will take 3 sheet trays to get to 18 cookies
  7. Bake in the oven for 16-18 minutes or until there is a light brown edge around the outside.
  8. Cool to room temperature on a rack and serve

Notes

  • Make-Ahead: You can make these up to 2 days ahead for freshness.
  • How to Store: Add the M&M chocolate chip cookies to plastic bags and keep them at room temperature for up to 5 days or in the refrigerator for up to 7 days. The dough and baked cookies will freeze well, covered in a container or plastic wrap, for up to 3 months.
  • On the sugar front, I like to combine brown and regular sugar, but you could absolutely use all light brown sugar.
  • Scrape the bowl of the standing mixer often to ensure all of the ingredients are being incorporated.
  • You can mix the final ingredients into the dough with the stand mixer, but they may break up quite a bit because of the torque from the mixer.
  • These are large, so I baked 6 on a tray at once, but If you prefer smaller cookies, please feel free to do so.
  • When making them, You should not flatten them with your finger or a spoon. They will flatten out as they bake at 350° and create layers as they spread out. When it does this, the cookies steam on the inside, making them moist.
