Ingredients

• 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
• 1 cup light brown sugar
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 2 pieces large eggs
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons cornstarch
• 1.5 cups Mint M&Ms
• 0.5 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats and set aside.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, use a handheld or stand mixer to cream together the unsalted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and cornstarch.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Fold in the Mint M&Ms and semi-sweet chocolate chips (if using) using a spatula or wooden spoon.

Step 7

Using a tablespoon or medium cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may still look soft, but they will firm up as they cool.

Step 9

Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week, or freeze for longer storage.
