Delicious Valentine Cookies with M&Ms and Sprinkles

These cookies are soft and chewy, packed with chocolate chips and M&Ms, and topped with festive heart sprinkles. The recipe yields about 24 cookies and takes approximately 30 minutes from start to finish, making them a quick and enjoyable Valentine’s Day treat.

Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 large eggs
• 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup chocolate chips
• 1 cup M&M candies (red, pink, and white for Valentine’s Day)
• 1/4 cup heart-shaped sprinkles for decoration

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Cream the Butter and Sugars: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract and eggs, mixing until well combined.
3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
4. Add Chocolate and M&Ms: Fold in the chocolate chips and M&M candies until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
5. Scoop the Dough: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
6. Add Heart Sprinkles: Gently press a few heart sprinkles onto the top of each cookie dough ball.
7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked; they will continue to set as they cool.
8. Cool: Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
