Mix in Brown Sugar and continue to cream for 2-3 additional minutes.
Gradually add All Purpose Flour, Baking Soda, Baking Powder, and Salt to the butter mixture and mix until combined.
Stir mini M&Ms into the cookie dough.
Scoop cookie dough into cookie dough balls using a #110 small cookie scoop. Or use a teaspoon to measure cookie dough and roll it into balls.
TIP: Add additional mini chocolate candies on top of cookie dough before baking for extra chocolate goodness
Bake at 350 F Degrees for 6-7 minutes, or until edges are set. Centers will still be soft.
Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for at least 1-2 minutes before moving to a wire rack to cool completely.
