Ultimate M & M Cookies

This is from an M&M's recipe booklet I picked up somewhere. This does not use peanut butter like a lot of other recipes on this site with M&M's. I hope you like them.
SERVES 18 , 36 cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1 (12 ounce) bag miniature M&M chocolate candies
- 3/4 cup nuts, chopped (optional)
Directions
1
In a large bowl cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy; beat in egg and vanilla.2
In a medium bowl combine flour, baking soda and salt; blend into creamed mixture.3
Stir in M&M's (and nuts if using).4
Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls about 2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets.5
Bake 10-12 minutes in a 350F oven. (They should be lightly browned and centers still soft. Do not overbake or they will become flat and crisp after cooling).6
Cool 2 minutes on cookie sheet and then transfer to wire racks to cool completely. Store in an airtight container.

These were good and the kids loved helping me make them. It keep our minds off things as Hurrican Ike was getting closer to us. I did find they were a little to sweet though. Thanks for sharing this super easy cookie recipe.

These are wonderful! Both of my sons just love M&M cookies so I am glad to have found this recipe. They loved them. I used the full-size M&Ms because that's what I always have on hand. They were delicious and I will make these again.

Since I had a hard time hiding the M&M's from DS's for making this recipe, I knew these would be a great treat for all. A great keeper recipe Mel. I've never made M&M cookies b/f and I"m sure it won't be the last. The only thing different I did was used full size plain M&M's. Couldn't find the mini's, though after thinking about it and looking later, discovered they were in the baking aisle. Duh.... Made for NewestZaarTag~
