Ingredients
For the Cookies:
- 1 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 ½ cups semisweet chocolate chips
- ½ cup colorful candy-coated chocolate pieces like M&Ms
For the Topping:
- ½ cup mini rainbow sprinkles
- ¼ cup candy-coated chocolate pieces
Instructions
Preheat Oven:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Prepare Cookie Dough:
- In a large bowl, beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until creamy. Add eggs one at a time, then mix in vanilla. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture and mix until just combined. Stir in chocolate chips and candy-coated chocolate pieces.
Shape the Cookies:
- Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten each dough ball slightly with the back of a spoon.
Add Toppings:
- Sprinkle mini rainbow sprinkles and additional candy-coated chocolate pieces on top of each cookie.
Bake:
- Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still slightly soft. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
