M & M Chocolate Chip Cookies

Makes approx. 30

125g unsalted butter
1/2C caster sugar
1/2C brown sugar
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/2tsp vanilla extract
1 3/4C self raising flour
1/2tsp salt
3/4C dark chocolate chips
3/4C M & M's



1. Preheat oven to 180C and spray some biscuit trays with oil.


2. Beat together butter, caster sugar, brown sugar & vanilla extract until pale. Add egg and beat some more until it is well combined. Sift in flour & salt and mix well with a wooden spoon. Then, using clean hands, mix the dough until it all comes together.


3. Add in chocolate chips & M&M's, and mix in using your hands. After mixing in the chocolate and M&M's, keep adding more of both until the mixture won't take any more, this usually means using 250g of each.


4. Shape the dough into small balls and place on prepared oven trays, allowing room to spread. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes on trays.
