A Wonderful M&M Cookie Recipe

No doubt you and your entire family will enjoy this simple, yet delicious M&M cookie recipe. I can still remember the first time I fed my toddler one of these cookies -- she was absolutely hooked! She went running around the house singing "M&Ms." Of course, her take on the pronunciation of M&Ms is bit different than ours, but that made it even more special!

Here is a great way to make M&M Cookies. It is simple and easy to follow. Basically, I just take a chocolate chip cookie recipe that I love and substitute the chocolate chips with M&Ms.

The M&M Cookie recipe my family and I enjoy the most:


2 cups m&ms
2 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup shortening
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup softened butter
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp vanilla 2 eggs

First, mix the shortening with the butter and then add the 1/2 cup of sugar along with the full cup of packed brown sugar and baking soda. Beat in eggs and vanilla and then gradually mix in the flour. Place spoonfuls of the dough onto an un-greased baking sheet. Place your M&Ms on the top (I recommend 5 per cookie, provided the cookie is not huge nor tiny). Bake at 375′ for 8-10 minutes. Cool on a wire rack and serve!

One of the great things about baking is that you can include your little ones. Seeing my daughter's face light up at the chance of helping out mom brings me back to when I was young and was allowed to help out in the kitchen. Cookies are yummy and should be fun to create. There is something truly wonderful about sitting down and enjoying a warm cookie with a cold glass of milk. It just seems that time slows down a bit.

I hope both you and your family enjoy this recipe. Do not let the simplicity fool you -- they are quite scrumptious.
