Ingredients
- 1 cup 2 sticks unsalted butter
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 tsp. vanilla extract
- 2¼ cups all-purpose flour measure before sifting
- ½ tsp. baking soda
- 1 heaping tsp. salt
- 1/2 bag 6 oz. semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 bag Semi-Sweet Dark Chocolate M&M's Baking Bits
- 3/4 bag Milk Chocolate M&M's Minis Holiday Baking Bits
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 375°.
- Cream butter and sugars together. It's up to you whether you use light brown or dark brown sugar, depending on your preferred cookie texture. I prefer light brown because it lends to a more golden, raised cookie with crunchy edges and a chewy, slightly cake-like center.
- Add eggs and vanilla, mixing well.
- Sift flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Add sifted dry ingredients to creamed mixture, mixing well.
- Add chocolate chips and chocolate candies, thoroughly mixing into dough.
- At this point, nuts are an optional add-in, but I always make without.
- Drop by heaping teaspoon onto cookie sheet.
- Bake at 375° for 10-11 minutes, or until cookies are lightly golden and done.
- Serve and enjoy!
