Not that I don't love my usual recipe for M&M cookies, but I felt like I needed a change...and I wasn't 100% satisfied with the sugar-factor of the last one--too gritty maybe? or sweet? Anywho-- I loved this recipe, and I think the key factor was melting the butter and using mostly dark brown sugar...I will be using this again! :)
Chewy Chocolate Chip (or M&M) Cookies
Recipe adapted from smittenkitchen
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- little less than 1 cup packed dark brown sugar
- 1/3 cup white sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 egg
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips (or 1 3/4 cups M&M candies)
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease cookie sheets or line with parchment paper.
- Sift together the flour, baking soda and salt; set aside. In a medium bowl, cream together the melted butter, brown sugar and white sugar until well blended.
- Beat in the vanilla, egg, and egg yolk until light and creamy. Mix in the sifted ingredients until just blended.
- Stir in the chocolate chips by hand using a wooden spoon. Drop tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared cookie sheets. Cookies should be about 3 inches apart.
- Bake larger cookies for 15 to 17 minutes, or 10 to 12 minutes for smaller ones until the edges are lightly toasted.
