Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

1/2 cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup Biscoff Spread (cookie butter)

Add-ins

1 1/2 cups M&M’s (reserve some to decorate cookie tops)

Instructions

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a sheet pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
Cream Butter and Sugars: Using an electric mixer, beat the room temperature unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar on medium speed for 1 to 2 minutes until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Add Egg and Vanilla: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated, then add the Biscoff cookie butter and continue mixing for another 30 seconds to 1 minute to create a smooth batter.
Combine Dry and Wet Ingredients: Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mix on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep cookies tender.
Fold in M&M’s: Gently stir in the M&M’s, reserving some to press on the tops of the cookie dough balls later for decoration.
Scoop Dough onto Sheet Pan: Using a cookie scoop or large spoon, form large rounded spoonfuls of dough and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly press down on each dough ball, but keep them thick to retain chewiness.
Bake Cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 14 minutes, or until the edges turn golden and the centers still look slightly gooey. This ensures a soft, chewy texture.
Cool Cookies: Remove cookies from the oven and transfer them to a wire rack. Let them cool for 10 minutes before serving to allow the cookies to set perfectly.

Notes

Do not overbake; cookies should look slightly undercooked in the center when pulled from the oven for the best chewy texture.
Use room temperature butter for easier creaming and better cookie texture.
You can substitute M&M’s with chocolate chips or other colorful candy pieces as desired.
For extra flavor, chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking to enhance the cookie’s texture and flavor depth.
Store baked cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
