M&M Cookies
These award winning M&M cookies are the best cookies ever! They are soft and chewy and they are sure to become your new favorite cookie! You will be surprised at how easy these fabulous cookies are to make. These are my husband Randy’s famous M&M cookies. He actually won a cookie contest with this recipe! Randy has been making these cookies for almost 40 years and we love them just as much today as the first time he made them. Every bite is a mouthful of buttery goodness! How to make these ridiculously delicious cookies On the stovetop or in the microwave, melt 1 1/2 sticks of butter. Beat together the melted butter and 1 1/3 cups firmly packed brown sugar. Next blend in 2eggs and 1 tsp vanilla. In a separate bowl combine 2 1/2 cups flour, 1 tsp baking soda, and 1/2 tsp salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter and sugar mixture. Finally, stir in 1 cup of M&M’s. Form the dough in to golf ball size rounds and press some M&M’s in to the top to make them pretty. Bake on a baking sheet 12-14 minutes at 350 degrees until lightly browned. Allow the cookies to cool about 3 minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Variations This is such a versatile cookie dough. Once the dough is made instead of M&M’s you could add chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, Reeses Pieces, nuts, or whatever you like! Can these cookies be frozen Yes! These cookies freeze really well. Put them into a freezer bag or a freezer safe container for up to 3 months.
