Description

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1 large egg
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch
• 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/2 cups quick oats
• 1 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup mini M&M candies

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper or use a silpat liner.
• In a large bowl (or bowl of a stand mixer) cream together the butter, brown sugar, and peanut butter until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
• Mix in the egg and vanilla, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
• In a separate bowl, add the flour, baking soda, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt and whisk to combine.
• With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
• Add the oats, chocolate chips, and M&M candies. Mix on low speed just until dough is combined.
• Use a small/medium cookie scoop, or about 2 tablespoons cookie dough, and place on the baking sheets.
• Bake the cookies for 7-9 minutes until the edges are just starting to brown and the top still looks slightly undercooked.
• Remove from the oven and cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before moving them to a wire rack to cool completely.
