Ingredients

  • 4 cups flour
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 1/2 cups butter, softened
  • 1 1/3 cups sugar
  • 1 1/3 cups brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 3 teaspoons vanilla
  • 2 cups M&Ms

Preparation

Step 1

Makes 1 dozen cookies

Pre-heat the oven to 350°F.

Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt. Beat the butter and sugars with an electric mixer until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes). Scrape down the bowl and add the eggs and egg yolk, one at a time, and beat until well combined. Beat in the vanilla.

Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and beat until just incorporated. Form the dough into balls, using a scant 1/4 cup measurement for each. Place six balls of dough on each cookie sheet and slightly flatten each cookie. Completely cover the top of each cookie with M&Ms, gently pressing the candies into the dough.
