Ingredient Notes
Flour – Trusty all purpose flour works best! Baking Soda – Baking soda is going to be our leavener for these! Eggs – I always use large eggs when baking, they act as a binder for our cookie dough. Vanilla – Without vanilla our cookies may taste a little flat. Salt – Salt is imperative in baking, this is going to help balance the flavors of the cookie. Don’t skip it! Butter – Softened and unsalted. If you’re using salted butter, you can omit the salt in the cookies. Sugar – Granulated sugar and brown sugar for lots of sweetness. Chocolate – We are using mini M&Ms, dark chocolate chips and white chocolate chips.
How To Make M&M Cookies
Tips
Don’t over bake your cookies! They will continue to bake on the baking sheet once taken out of the oven. Baking time will vary depending on the size of your cookies, so keep that in mind! Use an ice cream scoop to form uniform size dough balls. When storing cookies, if you don’t have an airtight container, add a slice of bread to your cookies to keep them soft, the same way you do to your brown sugar!
Storing Leftover M&M Cookies
Be sure to store your M&M cookies in an airtight container at room temperature, this will ensure you keep the cookies soft and will prevent them from turning hard. They will last for 2-3 weeks!
Freezing
These M&M cookies can also be frozen and saved for a later craving! They will last for 3 months in the freezer. You can either wrap them individually or place them together in an airtight container/freezer bag and freeze. Whenever the hankering for a chocolatey treat hits, just warm them back up in the oven, or simply let them thaw on the countertop and enjoy!
