Funfetti M&M Christmas Cookies
Giant cookies packed to the bring with Christmas sprinkles, M&M's (mini!) and White chocolate chips. They're gooey on the inside and crispy golden on the outside. AND did I mention that they're huge? Oh, I already did. Hey, they're big.
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter cold and cubed
- 1 cup brown sugar packed
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 whole eggs cold
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 3 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup Christmas jimmies sprinkles
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 cup mini M&M chocolate coated candies
Instructions
- Prep two large aluminum cookie sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
- Preheat oven to 410 degrees (yep, that's right!)
- In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, whip up the butter for 1 minute until it's light and fluffy, then add in the sugars to cream together with the butter for 3 minutes on high speed.
- Scrape down the sides of the bowl and then add in the vanilla and eggs one at a time, whipping up well between each addition.
- Add in the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt (no the sea salt) and slowly mix together by hand or on the very lowest mixer speed until just combined (don't overmix!)
- Reserve a few of the M&M's (to press on later), then hand stir or lowest-speed-mix the chocolate chips, Christmas sprinkles, and white chocolate chips into the batter. Split the dough into 8 balls (baseball-sized) and place 4 on each cookie sheet. Hand-press on some of the M&M's.
- Bake for 9-10 minutes. They should be slightly golden, slightly mounded in the middle, thick/tall, and gooey in the center. Let them cool on the pan for 5 minutes, then carefully transfer the cookies to a cooling rack to finish cooling. Enjoy!
