Ingredients
Scale
- 170 g unsalted butter (softened)
- 150 g sugar
- 80 g brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 300 g flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- 150 g red & green M&Ms
- 80 g white chocolate chips (optional but delicious)
- 120 g white chocolate (for drizzle)
- 1 tsp neutral oil (optional for smooth piping)
- Christmas sprinkles (for topping)
- Extra M&Ms (for decorating the tops)
Instructions
- Make the Cookie Dough: Beat butter + brown sugar + white sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg + egg yolk + vanilla, mix well. Add flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt. Mix until just combined. Fold in M&Ms + white chocolate chips. Chill dough 30 minutes (makes cookies thicker & softer).
- Shape the Cookies: Preheat oven to 180°C. Scoop dough into large balls (about 2 tbsp each). Press extra M&Ms gently on top of each. Space cookies well on the tray.
- Bake: Bake 10–12 minutes, until edges are lightly golden but centers still soft. Let cookies cool on the tray (they firm up as they cool).
- Add the White Chocolate Drizzle: Melt the white chocolate (microwave 20–20 sec bursts). Add 1 tsp oil if you want a glossy drizzle. Using a piping bag or spoon, drizzle over cooled cookies. Immediately add sprinkles so they stick.
Notes
- Chilling the dough is essential for thicker cookies.
- Feel free to customize the M&M colors for different holidays.
- Store cookies in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
