Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ cup salted butter melted
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs room temperature
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp corn starch
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp kosher salt
  • 1 cup M&Ms
  • ¾ cup milk chocolate M&M
  • extra chocolate chips & M&Ms for garnish

Instructions

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer combine melted butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar and vanilla. Mix on low until combined. While the mixer is on low add in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the dry ingredients.
  • Use a rubber spatula to fold in the M&M and chocolate chips. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and scoop 24 even dough balls. Cover with clear wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°. Space 4 cookie dough balls about 2 inches a part and bake for 12 minutes, or until the edges are just set. Leave the rest of the cookie dough in the refrigerator until needed.
  • These cookies will spread! As soon as the cookies come out of the oven use a round cookie cutter or glass to gently reshape the cookies into perfect circles. Place the cookie cutter over the cookie and gently scoot it around until the cookie melds into a circular shape. Gently press in a few chocolate chips and M&Ms into the top of the cookies. Let cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before gently transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.
