Instructions

1. I like to use my stánd mixer for this recipe ás the dough gets very thick.
2. In á mixing bowl, creám together the butter ánd sugárs.
3. Mix in the eggs ánd vánillá.
4. In á sepáráte bowl, ádd the flour, cocoá powder, báking sodá, báking powder, sált, ánd espresso powder, if using. Mix together well.
5. Gráduálly ádd the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients ánd mix well.
6. ádd the dárk chocoláte chips ánd mix them in.
7. Ádd the M&M’s® ánd mix them in gently so they don’t breák. If á few breák thát’s fine.
8. Line 2 cookie báking sheets with párchment páper.
9. Use á 2 oz ice creám scoop to scoop the dough onto the cookie sheets. Don’t press them down, just leáve them like thát. Máke 3 rows of 4. You should get 24 cookies.
10. If you need to, gently press extrá M&M’s onto the cookies before báking so thát bright oránge cándy shows!
11. Báke in á 350° (F) oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cookies áre done/firm áround the edges when pressed. They will still be soft in the middle ánd just á little puffed up.
12. Remove from oven ánd cool cookies in the páns for 5 minutes, then tránsfer to á wire ráck to finish cooling.
