Step-by-Step Instructions

  3. Add creamy peanut butter, pure vanilla extract, eggs, and extra yolk to the creamed mixture; mix until fully incorporated.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and baking powder.
  5. Gradually combine the dry mixture with the wet mixture, mixing on low until just combined. Fold in the mini M&Ms and chocolate chips.
  6. Using a cookie scoop, portion the dough onto prepared baking sheets, spaced 2 inches apart.
