Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large bowl, or using a stand mixer, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Scrape the sides of the bowl as needed.
Add the eggs and vanilla to the bowl and continue to cream together. Next, add the brown sugar.

Mix the candy bar pieces, chocolate chips OR M&M candies into cookie dough by hand.
Spoon heaped spoonfuls of the cookie dough onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. Make sure each cookie dough ball is at least 2 inches apart.
Press any additional candy bar pieces on top of the cookie dough before baking.
Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are set and centers are no longer glossy.
Allow cookies to cool on the cookie sheet for a few minutes before moving them to a wire rack to fully cool.
