Ingredients
2 sticks (1 cup/230g) salted butter, softened
2/3 cup (120g) brown sugar
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups (300g) all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
3/4 cup (150g) mini M&M milk chocolate candies
Directions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour and baking soda, then set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and vanilla extract together until the mixture is light, fluffy, and well combined, about 2 minutes.
Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and beat until the dough just comes together, being careful not to overmix.
Fold in the mini M&M candies gently until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Scoop the dough into walnut-sized portions and place them on a clean surface. Gently flatten each portion into a disk about 1/4 inch thick.
Arrange the cookie disks on an ungreased baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, until the edges are just beginning to turn lightly golden but the centers still appear slightly underbaked.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 2 to 3 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
