Alicia's favourite baking!

Ingredients

• 1 cup packed brown sugar

• 1/2 cup white sugar

• 1 cup butter (225 grams)

• 2 eggs

• 2 teaspoons vanilla essence

• 1 1/2 cups flour 

• 1 teaspoon baking powder

• 1 teaspoon salt

• 1 1/2 cups M&M's

Procedure

• Preheat the oven to 180C. 

• In a large bowl, mix the brown sugar, white sugar, butter, eggs, and vanilla with electric mixers on low speed until well mixed.

• Add the flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix until just combined. Stir the M&M's into the dough.

• Roll into large balls and press extra M&M's into the tops. Flatten slightly with your palm or the back of a wooden spoon.

• Bake for 10-12 minutes (they will be slightly underbaked). Remove from cookie sheet right away and place on cooling rack. Let stand for 5-10 minutes to help the cookies hold their shape.
