- 1 cup 2 sticks unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup M&M candies
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Gently fold in the M&M candies until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still slightly soft.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- For an extra indulgent touch, you can add 1 cup of chocolate chips to the cookie dough along with the M&M candies.
- To achieve a soft center, be careful not to overbake the cookies. They will continue to set as they cool on the baking sheet.
- You can customize the cookies by using different varieties of M&M candies, such as peanut or almond M&Ms, to suit your taste.
- For an extra burst of flavor, you can add a dash of instant coffee or espresso powder to the dough to enhance the chocolatey taste.
- Enjoy the Soft Chocolate M&M Cookies with a glass of milk or a scoop of ice cream for the ultimate sweet indulgence.
