The Best Chocolate M&M Cookies Recipe

These Chocolate M&M Cookies are THE BEST! They are easy to make, they’re irresistible and they are FUN! Throw in extra M&M’s, just ’cause.

My boys pretty much jumped over my body like crazed zombies to get to these delicious Chocolate M&M’s Cookies. The danger level for having these within my grasp was far too high, so I got rid of most of this batch within 20 minutes of them being taken out of the oven.

This is one of those cookie recipes that is impossible to mess up. The batter is forgiving, the recipe is solid and every person you know who is not allergic to chocolate or gluten will swoon.

I took the liberty of adding extra (gasp!) M&M’s even after I had plopped the dough onto the cookie sheets. One cannot ever have too many M&M’s. That’s a quote from one of the great philosophers (I can’t remember his name).

HOW TO MAKE CHOCOLATE COOKIES WITH M&M’s

STEP 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside. Using a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or a large mixing bowl with a hand mixer), combine the butter, granulated and brown sugars, eggs and vanilla and beat on medium speed until creamy and free of lumps. Add the Nutella and mix until just combined.

STEP 2

In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Mix well. Gradually add to the butter mixture and beat on medium speed until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips and M&M’s.

STEP 3

Using a medium cookie scoop, place 1.5-tablespoon-size chunks of batter 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until cookies are uniformly puffy and centers are cooked through.
