Ingredients
- 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
- Preheat the oven to 350°.
- 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.
- Add 1 egg at a time until combined, and then add in the vanilla.
- 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.
- Remove the bowl and fold the chocolate chips, candy, peanut butter chips, and walnuts with a rubber spatula until completely mixed in.
- 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
- Bake in the oven for 16-18 minutes or until there is a light brown edge around the outside.
- 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.
