How to Make Chocolate Fudge Cookies
Prepare the oven and cookie sheets- Preheat the oven to 350° and line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
Combine the wet ingredients- Melt the butter in a medium-size microwave-safe bowl. Once the butter is melted, mix in the unsweetened cocoa powder, granulated sugar, and vegetable oil until well blended.
Add the egg and vanilla extract- Beat in the egg and the vanilla extract. The mixture will become thicker and creamier.
Add the dry ingredients- Spoon the all-purpose flour in a measuring cup. Using the back of the spoon, scrape off the flour sitting above the measuring cup. Add the flour into the wet ingredients as well as the baking powder and the salt. Stir until the dry ingredients are moistened.
Stir in the mix-ins- Stir in the semisweet chocolate chips and the M&M’s until they are mixed into the cookie dough.
Scoop the M&M Chocolate Fudge Cookies - Scoop the dough by 2 tablespoons or by using a #30 cookie scoop. Place the dough onto the prepared cookie sheets and use the back of a spoon to gently flatten the dough down.
Top with mix-ins- Gently press extra chocolate chips and M&M’s into the tops of the cookies.
Bake- Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool completely before moving them. Avoid over baking so that the cookies have a fudgy center.
These cookies will be soft out of the oven and will need to cool before moving them as they will fall apart.
