Ingredients
Scale
Cookie Dough
- 1/2 cup butter salted or unsalted, softened
- 1/3 cup Imperial Sugar brown sugar, packed
- 3 tbsp Imperial Sugar granulated sugar
- 1 egg
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/3 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup M&M’s
- 1/4 cup peanut butter chips
- 3 tbsp semi sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Baking Sheet: Preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Set it aside for later use.
- Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer bowl, cream the cold butter with granulated sugar and brown sugar until the mixture becomes light and creamy, ensuring proper incorporation for fluffy cookies.
- Add Egg and Vanilla: Add the egg and vanilla extract to the creamed mixture, then mix until fully combined to create a smooth batter.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: Sift together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this to the wet ingredients and mix just until the flour disappears, avoiding overmixing which can toughen cookies.
- Fold in Chips and Candies: Gently fold in the M&M’s, peanut butter chips, and semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly into the dough for bursts of flavor in each bite.
- Portion Dough and Shape Cookies: Using a large cookie scooper, scoop out 8 equally sized dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet. Press each gently down to approximately 1 inch thick to ensure even baking and chewy texture.
- Bake Cookies: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 13 minutes, until the edges are set but centers remain soft for that perfect chewy consistency.
- Add Toppings and Cool: Immediately after removing from the oven, top each cookie with a few extra chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, and M&M’s to enhance appearance and flavor. Let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for 20 minutes until fully cooled and set.
Notes
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days to maintain freshness.
- Alternatively, store them in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 7 days to prolong shelf life; warm briefly in the microwave before serving for a soft, chewy texture.
- Do not overmix the dough after adding flour to keep cookies tender and chewy.
- Using cold butter helps maintain the dough consistency for proper texture.
- Pressing cookie dough balls to about 1 inch thick ensures even baking and desired chewiness.
