Filled with colorful M&M candies, these tiny chewy cookies are sure to become a family favorite! They are ready in under 30 minutes!
Equipment
Ingredients
- ½ cup salted butter softened to room temperature
- ½ cup white sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 1 ⅔ cups all purpose flour 8.2 oz
- 1 Tbsp cornstarch
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- 9.4 oz bag M&M minis about 1 1/3 cups
Instructions
- Line cookie sheets with silicone liners or spray with cooking spray. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
- Use an electric mixer to beat the butter and sugars until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the egg and vanilla; beat until smooth.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, soda, baking powder, and salt. Stir into the wet ingredients.
- Fold in about a cup of the M&Ms. (Save the rest for the tops of the cookies.)
- Scoop and roll into small balls, about 1/2 ounce each. Place cookie dough balls about 2 inches apart on prepared pans.
- Bake at 350° for about 7-9 minutes, or until set in the middle. For crunchier cookies, bake until they are golden brown.
- Immediately press additional M&M's on the tops of the cookies.
- Let sit on the pan for 2-3 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- You can make larger cookies with tablespoons of dough. They will need to bake for 10-12 minutes.
- For even tinier cookies, use a teaspoon of dough. Bake for 6-7 minutes. You'll get at least 80 cookies.
