Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter room temperature
  • 0.5 cup peanut butter creamy
  • 0.5 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup M&M's mini or regular

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, cream together the butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Beat in the vanilla extract and egg until well combined.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  • Fold in the M&M's.
  • Drop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

Store cookies in an airtight container for up to a week. You can freeze the dough balls for up to three months and bake directly from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the bake time.
