M&M Chocolate Chip Cookies
Every now and then I have bad baking streaks when nothing seems to go right, even with recipes I’ve made many times! I tried making these 4th of July Chocolate Chip Cookies and failed. I couldn’t tell you what went wrong, but I screwed something up.
If you are hosting or attending a party, 4th of July Snack Mix , 4th of July Brownies , or 4th of July Sprinkles Cake Mix Cookies will feed a crowd!

What You’ll Need
3/4 cup Butter, Softened
1 cup Brown Sugar
1/2 cup Sugar
1 Egg
1/2 tbsp Vanilla
2 1/2 cups Flour
2 tsp Corn Starch
1 tsp Baking Soda
1 cup Chocolate Chips
1 cup Red, White & Blue M&M’s

How to Make Chocolate Chip Cookies for 4th of July
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cream together 3/4 cup softened butter, 1 cup brown sugar, and 1/2 cup sugar. Beat in 1 egg and 1/2 tbsp vanilla until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups flour, 2 tsp corn starch, and 1 tbsp baking soda.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix until you’ve reached cookie dough consistency.
Fold in 1 cup chocolate chips.
Scoop 2 tbsp size cookie dough balls and place onto prepared baking sheet, leaving room between the cookies. Bake for 10-12 minutes.
As soon as you remove from the oven, press in M&M’s and additional chocolate chips into the tops of the cookies.
