Mint M&M Brownie Cookies combine the rich, fudgy texture of brownies with the ease of cookies, enhanced by the refreshing crunch of mint M&M’s. These chewy, chocolate-packed treats are perfect for holidays or anytime you crave a minty chocolate dessert.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup Mint M&M’s
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix until a thick dough forms.
  6. Fold in the Mint M&M’s and chocolate chips, if using.
  7. Scoop tablespoon-sized dough balls onto prepared baking sheets, spacing a few inches apart.
  8. Bake for 8–10 minutes, until edges are set and centers are still soft.
  9. Let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • No need to chill the dough—bake right away for quick results.
  • Use peppermint extract for stronger mint flavor.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature or freeze for longer storage.
  • For extra chewiness, slightly underbake the cookies and let them finish setting while cooling.
