- Use an electric hand mixer to cream the butter and sugar together for about 2 minutes, or until smooth and creamy. Whisk in the egg and vanilla.
- Add the baking soda and flour to the mixing bowl and reduce your mixer to a low speed. Gently whisk the wet and dry ingredients together until no pockets of flour remain.
- Gently fold in the oats and M&Ms until they are evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
