 These cookies are the perfect combination between vanilla cookies and chocolate candies. Sugar Cookies with M&M's: 2 1/2 cups (310g) flour 1/2 tsp salt 3/4 tsp baking soda 1 cup (250g) butter 1 1/4 cup (250g) sugar 2 eggs 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract or 1 1/2 tbsp vanilla sugar 1 cup (200g) mini M&M's (or regular if mini is not available) Cream the butter. Beat in eggs, vanilla and sugar. Beat in dry ingredients. You should have a thick cookie dough. Fold in the M&M's, saving some for later. Spoon onto a lined baking sheet. Bake at 350°F or 180°C for about 10 minutes. Remove from oven. Press a few fresh M&M's onto the still hot cookies just to make them a bit prettier. These are a lovely variant to the traditional chocolate chip cookie. A bit less caramel, a bit more vanilla. Very yummy.
