MM Cookies My Chunky Peanut Butter Dream Come True

Instructions:

1. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
2. Beat in the peanut butter (both creamy and chunky) and vanilla extract until well combined.
3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
6. Gently fold in the M&M's, reserving a few to press into the tops of the cookies before baking.
7. Cover the dough and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
8. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
9. Use a cookie scoop or your hands to form rounded balls of dough (about 2 tablespoons each). Place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie. Press a few extra M&M's onto the tops of the cookies.
10. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
11. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
