I love making beautiful cupcakes and cakes, gorgeous tarts and pies; but sometimes nothing is better than the simplicity of a soft, chewy cookie.
Soft Monster Cookies
Heavenly.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup of butter
1/2 cup of brown sugar
1/4 cup of white sugar
3/4 cup of crunchy peanut butter
1 egg
1 teaspoon of vanilla
1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
1 1/2 cups of flour
3/4 cup of M&Ms
1/2 cup of chocolate chips
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350 F.
If you stopped right here you’d have some pretty great peanut butter cookies. But we aren’t stopping.
Combine butter and sugars together. Add in peanut butter and stir again. Then add in your egg and vanilla.
It’s about to get better….
Then mix in the baking soda and flour until thoroughly combined. Fold in the chocolate chips and M&Ms.
Try not to just eat the dough at this step.
Put two tablespoon sized balls of cookie dough on a lightly greased cookie sheet. Press them down gently.
A colourful assortment ready to be baked!
So unhealthy and so delicious.
Bake for 10 minutes. Cool them on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Cool completely or eat warm with lots of milk.
Is there anything better than the smell of cookies baking?
Maybe I ate more than one at a time….
