Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus 1 tablespoon for buttering skillet
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 large egg at room temperature
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cup of your favorite M&M’s
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Using a pastry brush, coat a 12″ cast iron skillet with 1 tablespoon of butter. Set aside.
-
In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda and baking powder. Set aside.
-
In a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, cream remaining 1/2 cup butter with the brown sugar. Mix on medium speed for 5-7 minutes, until light and fluffy. Be sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl periodically.
-
Add the egg and vanilla and mix for another minute. Scrape down the sides of the bowl thoroughly.
-
Add the dry ingredients mixture to the butter mixture and mix on low until the flour is just incorporated.
-
Stir in 1 cup of M&M’s by hand, reserving 1/4 cup.
-
Transfer the cookie dough into the prepared cast iron skillet and gently press the dough evenly into the pan.
-
Place the skillet in the oven and bake until cookie is golden brown and edges are set, about 20 minutes, rotating skillet halfway through baking.
-
Allow it to cool for about 5 minutes, then carefully press the remaining M&Ms into the top of the baked cookie. This helps prevent them from cracking and keeps the color more vibrant.
-
Allow to cool 20-30 minutes before slicing it.
Enjoy! 👩🏻🍳👌🏻
