SMARTIES COOKIES
For these delicious cookies, first take the bowl of the stand mixer or any bowl.
Add the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and pinch of salt until you get a compact and homogeneous mixture, mixing with a fork or with the mixer’s flat beater.
Add the egg to the mixture and mix until incorporated using a fork.
Combine the flour and baking soda and mix until you get a dense dough.
Add the Smarties or M&M’s to the dough and mix with a spoon or spatula to incorporate them.
Scoop the dough from the bowl with a teaspoon.
Form a ball and flatten it into a disk.
Place the cookies on a baking sheet with parchment paper, well spaced as they tend to spread a lot while baking.
Before baking, put a few more Smarties on the surface of each cookie.
Bake in a static oven preheated to 350°F for about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool on a rack before serving.
