M & M Cookies

I hope you all had a nice weekend. The weather was beautiful here; even if it was a little cold.

Last week I shared the Blueberry Crunch Cake that I made for our church's outreach meal and today I'm sharing with the M&M Cookies recipe I made. They were delicious and don't worry, I only tasted one! The rest went for the outreach meal.

M & M Cookies

These cookies are so delicious. You can switch it up and use some of the newer flavored M & M candies. I would love the peanut butter flavored M & M's! They're probably my favorite candy!

M&M Cookies

Ingredients

1 cup (2 sticks) butter; softened
⅔ cup brown sugar
⅔ cup sugar
1 egg
1 ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups flour
1 ¼ teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 ¾ cups M&M candies

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large bowl, cream the butter and both sugars. Add the egg and butter and mix to combine.
In a separate bowl, sift the flour, salt and soda together.
Slowly add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and combine.
FOLD in the M&Ms.
Drop by rounded tablespoon onto a lightly greased baking sheet.
Bake 8 to 12 minutes until golden brown.
Cool slightly before removing to cool completely on a baking rack.

I know my grandson will love the M&M cookies. I refrain from making them but I think I'll surprise him with Halloween M&Ms. Thanks for sharing. Pinned/shared.

They look so good. Those are regularly sized M&Ms and not the baking ones, I think.

  I used good old regular M&Ms. But the baking ones would be great too!
