- 1 cup confectioner's sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 8 ounces M&M candy
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, beat together the butter and the sugar until well combined - about 2 minutes.
- Add the egg and the vanilla extract. Beat into the butter and sugar mixture until completely incorporated.
- Sift together the flour, and baking powder. Add to the butter mixture and beat until just combined.
- Load the cookie dough into a cookie press which has been fitted with the disc of your choosing.

- Top the middle of each pressed cookie with one M&M candy. Press the candy just slightly into the dough.
- Bake for 8 minutes. Remove from oven and allow the cookies to cool slightly on the baking sheet for 2 minutes. Transfer the cookies to a wire cooling rack to finish cooling.
