I have always made regular chocolate chip cookies, but I had never made any with M&Ms so I decided to try it out. They were a complete success and even had to make some more. This is how I decided to make them.
Ingredients:
2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
3/4 cups granulated sugar
3/4 cups packed brown sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract
2 eggs
1 cup Nestle Toll House semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup Mini M&Ms
Servings: About 4 dozen
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees
Combine flour, baking soda and salt in a small bowl and mix.
In a large bowl, beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until its creamy. Add one egg at a time and beat well after each egg. Beat in the flour mixture into the large bowl gradually. Stir in the chocolate chips and M&Ms.
Drop by rounded tablespoon onto a cookie sheet. Bake for about 9 minutes or until golden brown. Let them cool completely.
Final Result:
I usually don't make cookies from scratch because I feel like they take too long to make, but this time I thought I would give it a try. They came out delicious and I am about to tell you how I made them.
Ingredients:
1 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
3 cups flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
Direction:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees
I started by beating the butter and sugar until it became creamy. Then I added the eggs and vanilla until it was blended. In a separate bowl I mixed the flour, baking powder and salt together. Finally I added both mixtures together until they were completely blended.
I rolled out the dough and used cookie cutters of my choice and placed them on a cookie sheet and baked them for about 8 minutes.
End result:
