The best cookie recipe with a touch of spring. These Spring Chocolate Chip Cookie are best served warm with a big glass of cold milk.
Chocolate chip cookies are my favorite! Nothing is better than a warm cookie right out of the oven served with a big glass of milk. These yummy cookies are just like the classic but stuffed with awesome spring-colored
candies.
Making Spring Chocolate Chip Cookie:
Ready to get baking. Start by creaming together butter and sugars in a stand mixer or in a large bowl with a hand mixer. Cream until light and fluffy.
Mix in egg and vanilla. In a separate bowl sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Slowly mix this add this to your mixture until combined.
Fold in chocolate chips and 1/2 cup M&Ms. Allow chilling for 1 hour in the fridge.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and prepare a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray or a baking liner. Place even balls of dough onto the baking sheet (2-3 tbsp).
Place the remaining M&Ms on top of each cookie. Bake for 12-13 minutes and allow to cool on a wire rack for 3-4 minutes.
How to get the best chocolate chip cookie:
In the recipe, you will notice a few things I mentioned that you don’t want to skip out on. I know it will take extra time but it will all be worth it in the end.
And you can reward yourself for all that hard work, with a cookie of course. First, you want to make sure your butter is room temperature and very soft.
Hard butter right from the fridge will not give you this same cookie. The same goes for the egg. Make sure you leave it out also to be at room temperature also before you start mixing.
Lastly don’t skip out on the chilling time! Otherwise, your cookie will go flat and spread. You may end up with a big sheet with one cookie instead of several.
