Celebrate 4th of July with classic chocolate chip cookies made festive with red, white & blue M&M’s!

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.
