Ingredients:
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup red and green M&M’s candies (plus extra for pressing on top)
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until smooth and creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- Dry Ingredients should be combined: Separately whisk together the baking soda, all-purpose flour, and salt in a bowl. Combine the dry ingredients with the wet mixture gradually until everything is well mixed.
- Add mix-ins: Using a spatula, carefully fold in the red and green M&M’s candies and chocolate chips.
- Scoop and Bake: Leave enough room between the dough balls (approximately 2 tablespoons each) as you place them on the prepared baking sheet. Add some more M&Ms to the top of each dough ball.
- Bake until the centers are still soft and the edges are golden brown, 9–11 minutes.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for five minutes before placing them on a wire rack to cool fully.
