M&M Cookies (with Video!)
These M&M cookies are a vibrant, chewy delight that bring joy to every bite with their colorful candy-coated gems. With just 15 minutes of prep and a quick 11-minute bake, you’re moments away from a batch of happiness.
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled until no longer warm to the touch
- 1 1/4 cup brown sugar* tightly packed
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 large egg + 1 egg yolk room temperature preferred*
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 Tablespoon cornstarch
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups M&Ms
Instructions
- Combine melted butter and sugars in a large bowl and stir until well-combined.
- Add egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract and stir well.
- In a separate, medium-sized bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add dry ingredients to wet and mix until combined.
- Use a spatula to stir M&M candies into the cookie dough.
- Cover bowl with plastic wrap and transfer to the refrigerator to chill for at least 45 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350F (175C) and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- Once oven has preheated, remove your chilled cookie dough from the fridge and roll dough into approximately 2 Tablespoon-sized scoops. Roll gently to form a ball and place on prepared cookie sheet (space cookies at least 2" apart).
- Bake on 350F (175C) for 10-11 minutes, centers of the cookies may still seem slightly underbaked — allow cookies to cool completely on cookie sheet to finish cooking there, this will help keep them nice and soft.
