Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter (slightly softened)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 & 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp corn starch
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Mix-Ins

  • 2/3 cup Valentine’s Day M&M’s
  • 7 Oreo cookies, roughly chopped (regular stuffed, not double stuffed)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Baking Sheet: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silpat mat to prevent sticking.
  2. Cream Butter and Sugars: In a medium bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar using a spatula until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  3. Add Egg and Vanilla: Mix in the egg and vanilla extract thoroughly until well incorporated and the batter is smooth.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients—flour, corn starch, baking soda, and salt—into the wet mixture. Stir just until all ingredients are combined to avoid overmixing.
  5. Fold in M&M’s and Oreos: Gently fold in the chopped Oreo cookies and Valentine’s Day M&M’s, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
  6. Scoop Dough and Shape Cookies: Using a large cookie scooper (approximately 1/4 cup or 4 tablespoons), scoop out 10 equal portions of dough. Place them spaced evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Bake the Cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 13 minutes. The cookies may look slightly underdone or gooey in the middle; this is perfect as they will continue baking while cooling. Immediately after removing from the oven, use a larger cookie cutter to gently swirl each cookie to create a perfect round shape.
  8. Cool Cookies: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use regular stuffed Oreos rather than double stuffed for best texture and balance.
  • Do not overmix the dough after adding dry ingredients to avoid tough cookies.
  • The cookies will look underbaked when removed but will firm up as they cool.
  • You can substitute the Valentine’s Day M&M’s with regular or mini M&M’s depending on your preference.
  • For a chewier cookie, you may chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking.
