Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup Biscoff Spread (cookie butter)
Add-ins
- 1 1/2 cups M&M’s, some reserved for topping
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set this mixture aside for later use.
- Cream Butter and Sugars: Using a mixer, blend the room temperature unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar on medium speed for 1 to 2 minutes until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
- Add Egg and Vanilla: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well incorporated. Then mix in the Biscoff cookie butter spread for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute until the mixture is creamy and smooth.
- Combine with Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet components, mixing until just combined to avoid overworking the dough. Fold in the M&M’s gently, reserving some to press on top of the cookies before baking.
- Form Cookies: Using a cookie scoop or large spoon, scoop large rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet spaced about 2 inches apart. Slightly press down the cookie balls to keep them thick but allow room for spreading.
- Bake Cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 14 minutes or until the edges turn golden brown. The centers may remain slightly gooey which is ideal for a soft texture as cookies continue to firm up after baking.
- Cool and Serve: Remove cookies from the oven and transfer them to a wire rack. Allow cooling for at least 10 minutes before serving to let the cookies set properly.
Notes
- Do not overbake cookies to keep them soft and chewy; edges should be golden, centers slightly soft.
- Room temperature butter ensures better creaminess and cookie texture.
- M&M’s can be substituted or combined with other add-ins like chopped nuts or chocolate chips.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
- For thicker cookies, chill the dough before baking.
