These Giant Chocolate Chip Cookies with M&Ms are loaded with chocolate and super soft and chewy. They are made with brown sugar which adds a warm, rich flavor. These are soon to be your favorite Chocolate Chip Cookie!
In a stand mixture with the paddle attachment, cream together softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy; about 3 minutes.
Add egg and vanilla and stir for 1 minute, until completely combined.
Stir in flour, baking soda and cornstarch, just until combined. I prefer to use a wooden spoon for this step.
Gently fold in chocolate chips and m&ms.
Use a large cookie scoop or ice cream scoop (about 3-4 tablespoons) to shape dough into balls and place on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake cookies for 10-12 minutes, until the edges just start to brown.
Cool on baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store cookies in a tightly sealed container for up to 1 week, or freeze for unto 4 months.
Notes
Make sure all your ingredients are at room temperature before mixing your dough. This will give you the best texture.
