🍪 M&M’s Chocolate Chip Bakery Cookies

Makes: 24 cookies
Prep & Cook Time: ~25–30 minutes

Ingredients

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
2 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups M&M’s (regular or peanut)
Optional: 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

1. Preheat oven

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.

2. Mix dry ingredients

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

3. Cream butter and sugars

In a large bowl, beat softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (2–3 minutes).
Add eggs one at a time, mixing well.
Stir in vanilla extract.

4. Combine wet and dry

Gradually add flour mixture to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined.
Fold in M&M’s and chocolate chips (if using).

5. Scoop cookies

Use a cookie scoop or spoon to drop 2-tablespoon-sized balls onto prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart.

6. Bake

Bake 9–11 minutes, until edges are lightly golden but centers still soft.
Let cool on the baking sheet 2 minutes, then transfer to wire racks.

7. Serve

Enjoy warm for gooey chocolate or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.

⭐ Tips for Bakery-Style Cookies

Soft, chewy texture: Slightly underbake; cookies will continue to cook on the baking sheet.
Extra M&M’s on top: Press a few on each cookie before baking for a colorful, bakery look.
Chunky cookies: Chill dough 30 minutes for less spreading.

I can also give a giant bakery-style cookie version that makes one huge shareable cookie, perfect for parties or cutting into squares. Do you want that version?
