Preheat the oven to 175°C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cream butter and sugars
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Add egg and vanilla
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
Combine dry ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Mix dough
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in M&Ms
Gently fold in the M&M chocolate candies, reserving some for topping.
Form cookies
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 5 cm apart. Press a few extra M&Ms on top of each cookie.
Bake
Bake for 9-11 minutes until edges are golden brown. The centers will still look slightly underdone.
Cool cookies
