Ingredients
  

Cookie:

  • ¾ cup unsalted butter
  • 2 ⅓ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 ½ teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • ¼ cup + 2 Tablespoons semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • ¼ cup + 2 Tablespoons white chocolate chips
  • ½ cup Peanut Butter M&M’S® candies divided

Vanilla Buttercream:

  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 2-4 Tablespoons milk

To Assemble:

  • M&M’S® Chocolate Bars
  • Sprinkles

Instructions
 

Make the Cookie:

  • Preheat the oven to 350ºF and spray a 9-inch pie dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium-low heat. As the butter melts, it’ll start to foam, then turn a clear golden color. Continue to stir the butter, scraping up any browned specks from the bottom of the pan as it starts to brown. It should have a nutty aroma. Once browned and nutty, remove from the heat; set aside to cool slightly.
  • Whisk the flour, baking soda, salt, and cornstarch together in a medium bowl; set aside.
  • Transfer browned butter to a large bowl. Using a fork, vigorously stir in both sugars until smooth and combined, about 1 minute. Stir in the eggs and vanilla. Add the dry ingredients, stirring until just incorporated. Stir in 1/4 cup of the semi-sweet chips, 1/4 cup of the white chips, and 1/4 cup of the M&M’S® candies. Press dough into the pie dish, and place remaining chocolate chips and M&M’S® candies evenly into the dough.
  • Bake in the oven for 20-22 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned and the center is set. Allow cookie pie to cool completely.

Make the Buttercream:

  • In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and salt together on high until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute. Add the powdered sugar, a cup at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a silicone spatula as needed. Add the vanilla and 2 Tablespoons of milk, beating until light and fluffy. Transfer frosting to a piping bag with a piping tip.

To Assemble:

  • Once cookie has completely cooled, pipe a border of buttercream around the edges of the cookie. Decorate with M&M’S® Chocolate Bar pieces and sprinkles. Slice, serve, and enjoy!
