📝 Preparation Steps
1
Using a hand mixer or stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and sugars for ⏱️ 1-2 minutes. Add egg and vanilla, beating until combined, and scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl as necessary..

2
In a separate bowl whisk flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
3
Add dry ingredients to butter mixture and beat until just combined. Use a rubber spatula to stir in chocolate chips and ½ cup M&M's. At this point, I like to let the dough rest at cool room temp for ⏱️ 30 minutes before baking (this helps with the texture of the cookies). If your kitchen is warm you can place the dough in the refrigerator for ⏱️ 30 minutes.
4
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper (don't skip this step, it helps keep the cookies from spreading).
5
Scoop the dough into 2-tablespoon portions and form into mounds that are higher rather than wider. Place the dough mounds a few inches apart on parchment lined baking sheets. Lightly press the remaining ¼ cup M&M's onto the tops of the dough (this makes for a prettier cookie).
6
Bake for 9-11* minutes, until the edges are beginning to set, but the rest of the cookie is still slightly underdone. Note: They should be so soft that you should not be able to pick them up off the baking sheet. They will set as the cool.
7
Place the baking sheets on wire rack to cool completely. See note about shaping the cookies while they are still warm.
