• 1 egg
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 1/4 c flour

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350º and line 2 baking sheets with parchment or baking mats. In the bowl of your stand mixer cream the butter for 2-3 minutes, until light, add the sugar and beat until fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla and mix until combined. Add the flour, baking soda and salt and mix at medium until the dough comes together. Stir in the pretzel pieces, chocolate chips and M & M's. Scoop 1 1/2 Tbs of the dough into balls and place 1" apart on the baking sheets. Bake for 10-12 minutes until just golden around the edges. Cool on the pan 3-5 minutes, transfer to a wire rack and cool completely.
