What you need,
1 cup butter, room temp
2 large eggs
1 cup granulated sugar
½ cup brown sugar
2 tsp. vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 275g bag M&M Mini Baking Bites
(I used salted butter if you don’t add ½ tsp. salt)
Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a
silpat mat and set aside.
In a large bowl cream the butter and both sugars together
until light and fluffy. Add in the eggs, one at a time until well incorporated.
Stir in the vanilla.
Sift in the baking soda and flour and salt if you are using. Mix until
well combined. Stir in the mini
M&M’s.
Drop the dough by the tablespoonful onto the prepared baking
sheet.
Bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes until just brown around
the edges but still a little soft in the center. I prefer a chewy cookie, if
you like yours a little crunchier you can cook them a minute or 2 longer
Let the cookies cool on the pan for 5 minutes before
transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Store the cookies in an airtight
container for a week or in the freezer up to 3 months.
