Ingredients for M&M’S Cookies
- 3 Tbs Butter
- 1 cup chocolate chips or chocolate bar
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup flour
- 3 Tbs cocoa powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tsp espresso powder
- 1 cup M&M’S® Milk Chocolate Ghouls Mix Candies
How to Make M&M’S Cookies
You’ll want to start by preheating your oven to 325 degrees, Fahrenheit so it’s ready for the cookies when they’re finished being mixed!
Then, in a small bowl, melt butter and chocolate together in the microwave. Begin with 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until completely melted.
Cream melted chocolate and sugar together in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add in vanilla and eggs, beating one at a time until completely incorporated.
Mix flour, cocoa powder, salt, and espresso powder until combined. Stir in M&M’S® Milk Chocolate Ghouls Mix Candies. You might want to throw in a few extra into your mouth during this step. 😉
The batter will resemble a thick brownie batter.
How Long to Bake M&M’S Cookies
Using a large cookie scoop, add cookie dough to pan and place in oven.
Pro tip: line your baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup!
Once in the oven, drop the oven temperature to 300 degrees and bake for 16-19 minutes.
If you’re making multiple batches, make sure to preheat the oven back to 325 degrees before each new batch.
How to Store M&M’S Cookies
You can store cookies in an airtight container for three days on the counter.
Pro tip: if they start to get a little hard, place a piece of bread inside the container and it will soften the cookies back up.
These double chocolate M&M’S cookies will be making an appearance at my boy’s class Halloween parties this year and will make us the Best House on the Block. They’re sure to be a big hit with the colorful and fun M&M’S® Milk Chocolate Ghouls Mix Candies baked inside.
