- Scoop out about 2 tablespoons of cookie dough and roll into balls. An ice cream scooper works best for this.
- Bake 6 cookies at a time for 12-15 minutes. The middle will look under-baked, we want it this way!
- Gently press additional M&M's and chocolate chips on top of the cookies if desired.
- Let the cookies sit for several minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a cooling rack. This will help them continue to bake before cooling completely.
- Enjoy!
