Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ¾ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter, room temperature
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup packed brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup Biscoff cookie butter
Add-ins
- 1 ½ cups M&M’s, reserve some for topping
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and promote even baking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set this mixture aside as it forms the base of your cookie dough.
- Cream Butter and Sugars: Using a mixer on medium speed, combine the softened butter with the granulated and brown sugars for 1-2 minutes until the mixture is smooth and fully amalgamated, creating a creamy base.
- Add Egg, Vanilla, and Biscoff: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until just combined. Then incorporate the Biscoff cookie butter and mix for another 30 seconds to 1 minute, ensuring an even distribution of that signature flavor.
- Combine Dry and Wet Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet, beating just until combined to avoid overmixing which could toughen the cookies. Fold in the M&M’s gently.
- Shape Cookies: Using a cookie scoop or large spoon, portion out large rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Lightly press the tops of the cookie dough balls to slightly flatten each one without losing their thickness for a chewy interior.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-14 minutes until edges are golden and set. The cookies might look a bit soft or gooey in the center; this is ideal as they will firm up during cooling.
- Cool: Remove the cookies from the oven and transfer them onto a wire rack to cool completely for about 10 minutes before serving, allowing flavors to mature and the texture to stabilize.
Notes
- Do not overbake the cookies to maintain a chewy texture.
- You can reserve some M&M’s to press on top of the cookies before baking for a decorative finish.
- Letting the cookies cool on a wire rack prevents sogginess from steam.
- Room temperature butter is crucial for proper creaming with sugars.
- For extra crunch, use crunchy Biscoff spread or add chopped nuts if desired.
