Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 16 tbs unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 tbs vanilla extract
  • 1 ⅓ cups chocolate chips
  • 1 ⅓ cups M&Ms candies, divided

Instructions

  • Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, whisk the flour, oats, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream the butter and sugars together for 2-3 minutes. Add the egg, yolk, and vanilla extract, beating until everything is combined well.
  • Little by little, add the dry ingredients to the butter/sugar in the stand mixer. Mix until the flour mixture is incorporated.
  • Add the chocolate chips and 1 cup of the M&Ms to the dough, and mix until they are distributed throughout.
  • Using a cookie scoop, portion the cookie dough onto the prepared cookie sheets. Gently push a few M&Ms into the tops of the dough balls.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes, and up to overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. 
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, depending on how brown you'd like the cookies to be.
