Ingredients

1 cup unsalted butter room temperature
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
8 ounces cream cheese room temperature
2 eggs
2 1/3 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 cups M&Ms

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
Using a large bowl, cream together butter and sugars. Once they are well-combined, add the cream cheese. Cream until lightened in color and texture and very fluffy. Don’t forget this step!
1 cup unsalted butter, 1 cup packed brown sugar, 1/2 cup white sugar, 8 ounces cream cheese
Add eggs and beat until fluffy. Add the baking soda and salt and mix well. Add the flour, and stir slowly until almost all incorporated.
2 eggs, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 2 1/3 cups all purpose flour
Add the M&Ms at this point and stir until just distributed. Your flour will finish incorporating while you’re doing this step.
3 cups M&Ms
Scoop your cookies into extra large balls. I use my muffin scooper. Leave plenty of room between your cookies in your greased cookie sheet (or Silpat).
Bake for 15-17 minutes or until lightly browned around the edges.
Cool it down for a few minutes. Serve and enjoy!
