Add the eggs and vanilla extract and mix well.
Stir in the flour mixture until fully combined.
Stir in the chocolate chips and M&Ms until evenly distributed.

Notes
Start with room temperature butter and eggs.If cracked M&Ms bother you, skip mixing them into the dough and instead, press them into the warm cookies as soon as they come out of the oven. Store baked cookies in an airtight container for up to a week.Dough can be portioned out, covered, and put in the freezer to fully freeze. Once frozen, move from the baking sheet to a airtight freezer bag. Frozen dough will keep up to 3 months. You can bake from frozen, as directed, adding 1-2 minutes of bake time.
