Giant M&M Cookie

This Giant M&M Cookie recipe makes one big chocolate chip cookie with M&M’s.

Ever get a craving for homemade cookies, but you don’t feel like making a whole batch? Yeah, me too! That’s why I made this Giant M&M Cookie. All your favorite ingredients, just in smaller quantities.

I got the idea from a great website called Sallys Baking Addiction. She has some awesome recipes. You should check it out!

Making this very large cookie is simple. You only need one bowl. Start by mixing butter, peanut butter and sugar together. Add an egg and vanilla. Then you stir in your dry ingredients. Fold in chocolate chips and all but 1 tablespoon of M&M’s.

Use your hands to form dough into a big ball, then place onto a cookie sheet lined with a silicone mat or parchment paper. Flatten dough into a large cookie. Add the remaining M&M’s on top. Note: you could skip this step and just add all of the M&M’s to the batter, but I think it looks prettier this way.

Bake the cookie at 325°F. for 20-22 minutes, or until edges are lightly browned. Do not over bake!

Look at it! It’s bigger than my hand! And too much for me to eat all by myself.

That’s why I cut it into 4 pieces and shared it with my family. It was just the right amount of treat!

No need to wait for a special occasion to make cookies, a Giant M&M Cookie is a good idea any day of the year!
