M&M Cookies

I made these cookies to share with my friends and family. I also made them because i like to bake.

All-Purpose flower 2 cups

Baking soda ½ tsp

Salt ½ tsp

Unsalted butter, softened ¾ cup

Granulated sugar ½ cup

Light brown sugar, firmly packed ¾ cup

1 large egg

Vanilla extract ½ tbsp

M&M’s (regular or mini) 1 cup

Tools

Electric mixer

cookie tray

spatula

Turn your oven on, and set it to 350 degrees farenheit. While you are baking, keep the oven on, once you make your cookie batter the oven should be preheated.

Grab your baking sheet.Line your baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. (Or you can use butter so they wont stick)

In the bowl of a stand mixer, or with an electric hand mixer, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar for about 2 minutes.

Add in the egg and vanilla and continue to mix until thoroughly combined.

Add in the flour, baking soda, and salt, then continue to mix until the dough forms.

Add in the M&Ms and mix until evenly distributed throughout the dough. DO NOT USE A ELETRIC MIXER TO MIX IT IN

Take a handful of the cookie dough and split it in half. Then roll it into a ball in your hands, then place it on the cookie tray ,then press down on it a little. And repeat this step till you have no more dough left.

arrange the cookie dough on your prepared baking sheet and bake until the cookies have flattened, spread, and are just beginning to turn golden brown on the edges. Don’t worry if the center still looks slightly undercooked.

Let them cool off for about 5 minutes

Using a spatula, take the cookies off the tray and put into a contanier.

Share with friends and family, and yourself!
