First, there’s no need to chill this dough before you bake it, yay!!!!

To make chewy chocolate M&M cookies, start by beating the butter and brown sugar with a mixer until fluffy. Add in the egg and vanilla extract and beat again.

Combine the dry ingredients in a separate bowl, then add them to the wet ingredients, mixing with a spatula.

Use a cookie scoop to drop dough balls onto a silicone lined baking sheet. Press the m&ms and chocolate chips all around the outside of the dough ball. Bake and let them cool!

How to properly measure flour for cookies
Properly measuring flour in any baked good recipe is very crucial.
Spoon flour into the measuring cup, then use a butter knife to level it off. This is the proper and accurate way to measure flour.
Do not pack the flour down into the measuring cup.
Do not stick the measuring cup into the flour bag and scoop it out. This will result in too much flour in the recipe, making it dry.

Yes, definitely! Chocolate chip cookies with m&ms will turn out great with either mini m&ms or regular m&ms. They are also a great chocolate cookie to make for christmas – just use red and green m&ms to make chocolate m&m christmas cookies!

Gluten free M&M Cookies
I recommend using King Arthur All Purpose Gluten Free Flour as a one for one substitute for regular all-purpose flour. We have used that flour with AWESOME results to make these cookies gluten free!
