M & M Cookies


Jack was meeting some friends at the park to play "Nerf Wars" and decided to make some M&M cookies for everyone.  I bought the M&M's and he did the rest.

I thought M&M cookies used the same recipe as chocolate chip cookies, but this one has slightly different proportions of the ingredients.  It produced a chewy, slightly salty dough that was a great compliment to the sweet candies.

Delicious!


1 cup (2 sticks) butter
2/3 cup brown sugar
2/3 cup sugar
1 egg
1 1/2 t vanilla
2 cups flour
1 1/4 t baking soda
1 t salt
1 3/4 cup M&Ms

Preheat oven to 350.

Cream butter and sugars.  Add egg and vanilla.

Sift flour, salt and soda.  Slowly add to butter mixture.  Stir in M&Ms.  Chill for at least an hour.

Drop dough onto lightly greased pan.  (We used parchment paper.)

Bake for 8-10 for chewy cookies or 12-14 minutes for crisp cookies.
