Instructions

• Preheat the oven to 375 line a baking sheet with parchment paper.  
• In a medium size mixing bowl combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt, mix well and set aside.  
• In the bowl of a mixer, using the paddle attachment, combine butter, brown sugar and white sugar. Cream together until well incorporated.

• Gradually add in dry ingredients mixing thoroughly between each addition.  
• After the dry ingredients are all incorporated add in the chocolate chips and M&M’s gently mix on low until they are well distributed through the dough. I like to use the dough hook for this step but you can use the paddle attachment.
