Servings 36 cookies
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 12 minutes
Total Time 27 minutes

Ingredients

  • cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 large egg at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • cups patriotic M&M's
  • 3 tablespoons sprinkles

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F/180°C, and line 2 large cookie sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
  • In a bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • In another bowl, using a hand mixer beat the butter with the sugars until smooth and creamy (2-3 minutes). Add in the egg, and vanilla extract, and mix again until smooth.
  • Add in the dry ingredients and mix until just combined, then gently fold in the M&M's and the sprinkles.
  • Using a medium cookie scoop (1.5 tablespoons size), scoop out the cookie dough and place onto the baking sheets.
  • Bake for 12 minutes or until the bottom of the cookie is lightly browned, remove from the oven and allow to cool on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Be careful not to overbake the cookies, they are done when the edges have set, and the centers are still soft.
  • Storing: These cookies will stay fresh for up to 3 days in an airtight container at room temperature. Freeze for longer storage, wrapping each cookie individually for best results.
