Ingredients:

• 1 cup browned butter
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup white or soft sugar
• 1 whole egg plus 1 egg yolk
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup almond flour
• A hint of vanilla extract
• A pinch of salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• Chopped M&M's (peanuts and plain)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the browned butter: Start by browning the butter in a saucepan over medium heat until it has a nutty, caramel scent. Let it cool slightly.
2. Mix the wet ingredients: In a large bowl, mix the cooled brown butter with the two sugars. Add the egg, egg yolk and vanilla, mixing well until well combined.
3. Mix the dry ingredients: Sift together all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking soda and salt. Gradually add it to the wet mixture, stirring until the dough is uniform and no dry flour remains.
4. Add M&M's: Incorporate the chopped M&M's into the dough.
5. Cool the dough: For optimal flavor and texture, refrigerate the dough for between 15 minutes and 24 hours.
6. Cook: Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F). Roll the dough into balls and place them on a lined baking sheet. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until edges are barely golden.
7. Cool and serve: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
