Equipment

  • 1 half sheet pan 13x18 inches

Ingredients
  

  • 2 sticks butter unsalted.
  • 1 cup dark brown sugar
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tspn vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp corn syrup optional
  • 1 tspn cornstarch
  • 1 tspn salt
  • ½ tspn baking soda
  • ½ tspn baking powder
  • 3 cups all purpose flour
  • 10 ounces MMs I used a bag of Valentine colors. Use any MMs you like. MM Minis work great too.
  • ½ cup sprinkles optional. Choose a color to match the them of your MMs.

Instructions
 

  • In a large microwave safe bowl, melt the butter in the microwave until just melted. Allow to cool to room temperature.
  • Add the dark brown sugar and granulated sugar and mix to combine with a fork.
  • Add the eggs, vanilla extract, and corn syrup and mix until no traces of egg remain.
  • Add the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cornstarch, and salt to the wet ingredients. Mix until it just comes together into a soft dough.
  • Reserve a ¼ cup of MMs to sprinkle on top.
  • Add the remaining MMs to the dough and mix.
  • Dump the cookie dough out onto a half sheet pan 13x18 inches. You can line with parchment for easier cleanup.
  • Sprinkle the reserved MMs on top and add sprinkles to the top if desired.
  • Bake at 350* for 14-16 minutes or until the cookie is golden brown. The middle may be slightly shiny, that's ok. it will continue to bake and set as it cools.
  • Cool the sheet pan cookie on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before cutting into. The longer it can cool the better it will hold up for slicing.
  • Slice the sheet pan cookie into 24 pieces. 4 across the short side of the pan and 6 cuts along the long side of the pan.
  • Ready to share with a large crowd. You are a cookie hero.
  • Enjoy!
