Ingredients
-
1 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 (12 ounce) bag miniature M&M's chocolate candies
3/4 cup nuts, chopped (optional)
Preparation
-
In a large bowl cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy; beat in egg and vanilla.
In a medium bowl combine flour, baking soda and salt; blend into creamed mixture.
Stir in M&M's (and nuts if using).
Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls about 2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets.
Bake 10-12 minutes in a 350F oven. (They should be lightly browned and centers still soft. Do not overbake or they will become flat and crisp after cooling).
Cool 2 minutes on cookie sheet and then transfer to wire racks to cool completely. Store in an airtight container.
