Preparation

Step 1

In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, and salt.

In a large mixing bowl, beat together the butter, brown sugar, and sugar until smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes.

Beat in the egg yolk and vanilla until incorporated
.
Gradually beat in the flour mixture until a dough forms. Add the M&Ms.

Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or until the dough is firm enough to scoop.

Preheat oven to 350F. Have an ungreased cookie sheet ready.

Using a #40 cookie scoop or by hand, roll the dough into 1 1/2-inch balls then place on the baking sheet about 2 inches apart.

Bake 8-10 minutes or until golden brown and center no longer looks wet. Cool on the sheet for a few minutes then transfer cookies to a wire rack to finish cooling.
