Instruction
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, blend sugars and butter to form a grainy paste.
- Add the egg and vanilla. Beat at medium speed until light and fluffy.
- Add flour, salt, baking soda, crisped rice cereal and chocolate. Blend on low-speed just until combined.
- Roll into 1 1/2 inch balls and place in mini muffin tins that have been sprayed with cooking spray.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 11 minutes.
- As soon as the cookies come out of the oven, use the rounded tip of a kitchen utensil to make a well in the center of the cookie.
- Allow the cookies to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then remove them to wire racks to cool completely.
- While the cookies are cooling, prepare the buttercream. Using a mixer, whip the butter for 1-2 minutes, until it is nearly white. Add in the vanilla, powdered sugar and milk. Beat the frosting on medium speed for 2 minutes until it is fluffy.
- Pipe a dollop of frosting into each cooled cookie. Top with 3 M&M's® Crispy.
- Store in an airtight container.
