M & M Mini Cookies

I saw a recipe similar to this on pinterest but I decided to change it a little bit! I absolutely loved these cookies and the fact that they're mini sized!

Ingredients:
1 1/3 C. All Purpose Flour
1 tsp. Cornstarch
1/4 & 1/8 tsp. Baking Soda
1/4 tsp. Salt
1/2 C. Unsalted Butter
1/2 C. Packed Light-Brown Sugar
1/4 C. Granulated Sugar
1 Large Egg
1 1/2 tsp. Vanilla Extract
Mini M&M's or Mini Chocolate Chips **I did not measure these out, I just kind of added until I thought it was enough

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees
In a small mixing bowl whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking soda and salt for 20 seconds, set aside

Place butter in a large microwave safe bowl, heat in microwave on HIGH power until butter has melted halfway. Remove and whisk until fully melted.
Add brown sugar and granulated sugar, use mixer (hand or Kitchen Aid counter top mixer) blend mixture on medium speed until well combined.
Mix in egg and vanilla extract.
With mixer set on low speed, slowly add in dry ingredients and mix until combined.
Stir in m&m's/chocolate chips.
Scoop dough out a slightly heaping 1/2 tsp at a time and drop onto pan/cookie sheet (use parchment paper on pan so cookies do not stick)
Bake in preheated oven about 5 - 6 minutes (I baked mine for 7 but my oven is older so watch cookies after 5 minutes) (they should still fill soft and slightly under-baked, they will continue to cook slightly once removed from oven so carefully not to over-bake).
Remove from oven and cool on baking sheet several minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool. Store in an airtight container.
