Ingredients
- 0.75 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 0.75 cup brown sugar, packed
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 1 piece large egg
- 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1.5 cups M&M candies
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
Step 4
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, cornstarch, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Step 6
Gently fold in 1 cup of M&M candies, reserving the remaining 0.5 cup for topping the cookies.
Step 7
Using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, portion out dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 8
Press a few of the reserved M&Ms on top of each cookie dough ball for a colorful appearance.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden but the centers look soft.
Step 10
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 11
Serve the cookies warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
