valentine's oreo m&m cookies
Your sweetheart won't say no to a second, or third, or fourth of these pretty little treats.
Ingredients
- 2 sticks butter, softened
- 3/4 cup dark brown sugar
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 cup all purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1 cup Oreos, crushed
- 1 cup Valentine's M&Ms, plus more for topping
- flaky salt, to top
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, cream the butter and sugars until soft and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Whip in the eggs, one at a time, then the vanilla extract. Add the flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix until just combined. Fold in the Oreos and M&Ms with a rubber spatula until incorporated.
- Scoop heaping tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll into a ball. Set on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie. Press a few more M&Ms into the cookie balls if desired.
- Bake for 8 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and tap firmly on the counter 2-3 times to flatten. Return to the oven for 3-4 minutes longer until the edges are set. Remove and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet. Sprinkle with flaky salt, as desired.
