Prep Time: 30 mins
Cook Time: 10 mins
Total Time: 40 mins

Yield: Makes about 16-18 cookies 1x

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper
Using a hand mixer or stand mixer beat butter sugar for 1-2 minutes
Next add in egg and vanilla extract on low speed until creamy
Then add in flour mixture and mix until just combined
Fold in M&M’s/chocolate chips and add to fridge to chill for 30 minutes
Scoop balls of dough, between 1½ and 3-tablespoon portions and drop dough onto prepared baking sheets leaving an inch or two between cookies (I like to mound the dough balls so that they’re higher rather than wider)
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until edges are golden but the center is still slightly underdone, this will create a soft cookie
Allow the cookies to cool for a few then enjoy!

Notes

*Store in airtight container for 5 days or freezer for 2 months
