1 1/4 sticks unsalted butter
1/2 + 1/8 c light brown sugar
1/2 c + 1 tbs granulated sugar
1 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 bag mint M&M's. (about 1 cup, but the more the merrier!)

  1. Mix flours, baking soda, baking powder, and salt into a bowl. Set aside.
  2. In a large bowl cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy (about 5 min). 
  3. Add eggs, stir in vanilla, and cocoa powder.
  4. reduce to low speed and slowly add dry ingredients.
  5. Fold in mint m&m's, then refrigerate dough for 24-36 hours.
  6. Preheat oven to 350*, spoon dough onto baking sheet, and bake for 10-12 min.
