M&M Chocolate Chip Cookies

I have baked alot of cookies, this recipe has well & truly been tested out! (I like super chewy cookies, so I have been on the hunt for the perfect recipe for a while. I think I have finally found the BEST cookie recipe! Whilst on the hunt for the best cookie recipe I heard talk that cream of tartar helps make the cookies super chewy after testing it out I was pretty impressed to see it did exactly that! These cookies are crispy on the outside but super chewy on the inside. Although I like chocolate chip cookies I wanted to add something extra to this recipe so when I saw a big bag of M&M's stirring at me in the supermarket, I took this as a sign to put them in the cookies! I have ended up eating a ton (literally) of cookies but I think I have ended up with some of the best cookies I have ever tried. So of course I had to share this recipe with you here on my blog and also on my Youtube channel.

Break the dough into ball like shapes (around 12 balls)

 Space them well apart on the prepared baking trays, giving a little squish down as you place them, allow room between each cookie as they will spread
