Ingredients
1 cup butter, room temperature
1 cup brown sugar, lightly packed
½ cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, large
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cups flour, unbleached or all-purpose
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 (10.8 oz) bag M&M’S mini milk chocolate candies, reserve ¼ cup
Instructions
Preheat an oven to 360 degrees F. I found this temperature to be perfect for my gourmet cookies.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter, sugars and salt. Mix on low speed for about a minute, then on medium speed for another minute.
Add the eggs & vanilla extract. Mix on low until the eggs are blended in, then at medium speed for a minute and then on high speed for an additional minute. The mixture
should be a pale yellow color and very fluffy.
Add the first cup of flour, along with the baking powder and baking soda. Then add the remainder of the flour a cup at a time.
Mix in the M&MS® mini milk chocolate candies on low speed, reserving ¼ cup for the tops.
Using a 2 ounce cookie scooper, place dough on ungreased baking sheets about 2 a part. Place a few M&MS mini milk chocolate candies on the tops where needed.
Bake in a preheated 360 degrees F oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops start to crackle and the cookies are light golden brown.
Cool on baking sheets for 10 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
