Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

In a large bowl, with an electric beater, beat together the butter, peanut butter, and sugars until fluffy; blend in the egg.

In a medium-sized bowl, combine the flour and baking soda; add to the peanut butter mixture and mix well. Stir in the M&M's then drop by heaping tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart on baking sheets that have been coated with baking spray.

Bake for 14 to 17 minutes, until the edges are golden brown. Allow to cool on the baking sheets for 3 minutes, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
