Description

Adult version of a childhood favourite.

Ingredients

  • ½ cups Unsalted Butter, Softened To Room Temperature
  • 4 ounces, weight Cream Cheese, Softened
  • 1 cup Dark Brown Sugar (packed)
  • ¼ cups Granulated Sugar
  • ¼ cups Powdered Sugar
  • 1 whole Egg
  • 1 Tablespoon Honey
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
  • 2-¼ cups All-purpose Flour
  • ½ teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1 Tablespoon Cornstarch
  • 1-¼ teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • 1-¼ cup Dark Chocolate M&Ms, Divided
  • ½ cups Dark Chocolate Chips
  • 2 teaspoons Flaky Sea Salt, Sprinkled To Taste

Preparation

Combine the wet ingredients (butter, cream cheese, sugars, egg, honey and vanilla) in a large bowl using an electric mixer on low speed until well-blended.

In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, cornstarch and kosher salt until thoroughly mixed. Add this mixture to the wet ingredients until fully mixed.

Add 1 cup of dark chocolate M&Ms and the dark chocolate chips to the wet mixture by stirring them in with a spoon, by hand.

Refrigerate dough for at least 20 minutes but you may refrigerate longer. Preheat the oven to 350ºF.

Use a large cookie scoop to portion out balls of dough. Flatten until approximately ½ inch tall, 2 1/2 inches in diameter. From the remaining ¼ cup of M&Ms, press a few extra M&Ms into the tops of the cookies.

Prepare a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Put the portions of flattened cookie dough 2 inches apart. Bake for 12-14 minutes, taking cookies out when the tops no longer appear wet (please note you may have to adjust oven time depending on the thickness of your cookies).

Add flaky sea salt to your taste while cookies are hot out of the oven. Cool on cookie sheet for a few minutes and then place on cooling rack.
