Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter (Slightly softened)
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 and 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon corn starch
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup Vnon-alcoholic alentine’s Day M&M’s (look for the pink, red, and white ones for extra festive flair!)
7 regular Oreo cookies (roughly chopped, regular stuffed – not double stuffed, as the extra cream can make the cookies too gooey)

Creaming the Sugars and Butter

Step 1: Cream the Butter and Sugars

Begin extract by preheating your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; this is a crucial step to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup. In a large mixing bowl, add your slightly softened butter, packed brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Using an electric mixer (handheld or stand mixer), cream these ingredients together on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy, and the sugars are well incorporated. This usually takes about 2-3 minutes. Don’t rush this process; creaming properly incorporates air, which contributes to the cookie’s texture. If you don’t have an electric mixer, you can use a sturdy whisk or wooden spoon, but it will require a bit more elbow grease. Ensure your butter is softened but not melted. If it’s too hard, the sugars won’t incorporate well, and if it’s too melted, your cookies might spread too much.

Step 2: Incorporate Wet Ingredients

Once the butter and sugars are beautifully creamed, it’s time to add the egg and vanilla extract. Crack the egg directly into the bowl. Add the 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract. Continue mixing on medium speed until the egg is fully incorporated into the butter and sugar mixture. The mixture might look a little curdled at first, but keep mixing, and it will come together into a smooth, glossy batter. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula periodically to ensure everything is evenly mixed. The vanilla extract is key here, not only for flavor but also to add a subtle depth to the overall taste profile of these festive cookies.

Combining Dry Ingredients and Folding in Add-ins

Step 3: Whisk Together Dry Ingredients

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, corn starch, baking soda, and salt. Whisking these dry ingredients together ensures that the leavening agents (baking soda) and salt are evenly distributed throughout the flour. This is important for consistent rising and flavor in your cookies. The corn starch, while not strictly necessary, helps to create a more tender cookie by absorbing moisture and preventing gluten development. Take a moment to make sure there are no lumps in your flour or baking soda.

Step 4: Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures and Add Ins

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix at this stage. Overmixing can develop the gluten in the flour, leading to tough cookies. You want to mix until you no longer see streaks of flour. Now comes the fun part!

Shaping and Baking for Perfection

Step 5: Shape and Bake Your Festive Cookies

Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. You can use a cookie scoop for uniform size, which helps with even baking. If you prefer a slightly flatter cookie, you can gently press down on the tops of the dough balls with the bottom of a glass or your fingers before baking. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers appear set but still slightly soft. The cookies will continue to cook slightly on the baking sheet after you remove them from the oven, so don’t overbake them. For an extra festive touch, as soon as the cookies come out of the oven, you can press a few extra M&M’s into the tops of the warm cookies. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This allows them to firm up before movinon-alcoholic ale Enjoy these delightful Valentine’s Day treats!
