Sometimes you just need a good, chewy cookie . . . and this recipe is one of my go-to’s! You could leave out the M and M’s and use chocolate chips or whatever your favorite mix-ins may be! Anything will work

Ingredients

• 1 3/4 sticks (14 Tablespoons) butter, softened
• 1 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup light brown sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup chocolate chips
• 1 cup mini M and M baking pieces

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Line cookie sheet with parchment paper or silicone liner; set aside.
Add both sugars and cream together until fluffy.
Add in the vanilla, then add in the eggs one at a time, mixing in between each egg.
Mix in the flour, baking soda, and salt until just combined. If the dough is sticking to the edge of the bowl, add a little more flour.
Fold in chocolate chips and M and M candies.
Using a cookie scoop, drop scoops of dough onto prepared baking sheet. If desired, press additional M and M's on top of each cookie.
Cook for 8-9 minutes, making sure to not over bake. Remove from oven and let cool on the cookie sheet for 1-2 minutes, then move to a wire rack.
