Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter cold and cubed
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk chocolate chips
  • 1 cup M&M candies, regular sized or mini

Instructions

  • Line two baking sheets with parchment or baking mats, and set aside. Preheat oven to 400° F.
  • Using an electric mixer or stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the cold butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until well combined, about 3 minutes.
  • Add the eggs and vanilla, and beat well.
  • Add the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix to combine well.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips and M&Ms.
  • Working with 1/4 cup dough at a time, roll the dough into a ball and then lightly press it on the pan so that it's slightly flattened. Place 6 cookies per baking sheet.
  • Bake for 11 to 13 minutes, until the edges are lightly browned. Remove from the oven, and let rest on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes before removing and placing them on a wire rack.
  • Repeat with remaining dough.

Notes

  • These giant cookies are SO much fun! Feel free to use a combo of milk and semi-sweet chocolate chips and a combo of regular and mini M&M's if you'd like.
  • To quickly and easily portion your dough, use your spring-loaded cookie scoop.
  • These are super easy to customize by using seasonal and holiday M&Ms — cute treats with no extra effort!
  • Freeze the flattened dough portions so that you have ready-to-bake cookies.
