Mini M&M Cookies

This is another recipe originally from Sally’s Baking Addiction. If you can’t find mini red and green m&m’s (I couldn’t when I made them) just use regular size red & green m&m’s.

• 1 2/3 cups flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup packed light or dark brown sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup mini red and green M&Ms

Preheat oven to 350. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside. Combine flour, baking soda, and salt together; set aside. In the large bow] of a stand mixer beat the butter and both sugars together until smooth and creamy; about 2 minutes. Add the egg and vanilla and beat on high until combined, about 1 minute. Add the dry ingredients and mix on low until combined. Stir in M&Ms.

Roll dough into very tiny balls, about 1 teaspoon each. Bake for 7-8 minutes until edges are lightly browned. Press a couple extra M&Ms into the tops of the cookies while still warm (just to make them look pretty). Allow cookies to cool 5 minutes on the baking sheets before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Makes approximately 85 cookies.
