Confetti Cookies

Ingredients:
2 1⁄2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1⁄2 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup crushed up m&m candies

Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

2. Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium mixing bowl and set aside.

3. Combine the butter and sugar in a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat until smooth. Stir in the flour mixture until just combined.

4. Stir in 1 cup of the m&m confetti bits and mix well with a wooden spoon.

5. Use a medium (walnut size) cookie scoop and place cookie scoops on parchment-lined baking sheet(I used my stoneware~no need for parchment) about 3 inches apart.

6. Bake for about 10 minutes or just until the edges begin to brown.

7. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Makes about 2 dozen cookies.
