Ingredients:

3/4 cup unsalted butter (softened)

1 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup brown sugar (packed)

1 1/2 cups M&M candies (or more for topping)

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. Cream the Wet Ingredients:

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes using an electric mixer.

Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

3. Mix the Dry Ingredients:

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.

4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined.

5. Add M&Ms:

Gently fold in the M&Ms, reserving some for pressing onto the cookies later.

6. Form the Cookies:

Use a large cookie scoop or about 2 tablespoons of dough per cookie. Roll them into balls and place them onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Press a few additional M&Ms into the tops of the dough balls for a colorful, fun look.

7. Bake:

Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the centers are still soft. Be careful not to overbake for the softest result.

8. Cool:

Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
