Post Halloween M&M Cookies
Soft and chewy cookies filled with lots of M&M's. A great way to use up your leftover Halloween candy. Feel free to substitute the M&M's for reese pieces or any other chocolate.
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter softened
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 cup white sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 tbsp. vanilla
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- ½ tsp. salt
- 2 cups milk chocolate M&M's
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 ° and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium sized bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth.
- Next, beat in your eggs one at a time and then vanilla.
- In a separate bowl gently mix flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Slowly add the flour mixture to the butter mixture while gently stirring to mix all the ingredients together.
- Fold in your M&M's and then REFRIGERATE FOR 30 MIN (don't skip it).
- Drop tablespoon sized amounts of cookie dough onto baking sheets lined with parchment paper. You can kinda roll them with your hands and then flatten them. You don't want them to be to thick.
- Bake in oven for 10-11 minutes. You will want them to be slightly underbaked and golden brown around the edges. If you start to smell them, they are probably ready to come out! Let sit for 5 minutes then transfer to cool.
