Secret Ingredient To The Best M&M Cookies!

Add a few Tablespoons of vanilla pudding mix with your dry ingredients.

Give a nice stir to combine until dough forms.

Pour in your chocolate chips.

Mini or regular size M and M’s.

My kind of dough.

Do not press the cookie dough before baking. Leave just like this. UPDATE: If your cookies don’t flatten after baking as my photo shows below, try pressing the cookie dough to about a 1/2″ thickness before you bake.

This is how they’ll come out. Perfect! Enjoy friends!

Tips For Making The Best M&M Cookies

Don’t alter the recipe, use all ingredients as listed. For a more firm cookie, refrigerate your cookie dough for 24 hours before baking. Always use butter, not margarine. ALWAYS. I prefer salted butter for my chocolate chip cookies. Try it! Do not ever grease your cookie sheets. Will make cookies spread and change texture. Don’t skip creaming your butter and sugars for a good 2 minutes. Helps create a fluffy, chewy cookie. Try sprinkling dough with just a touch of salt for a perfect sweet and salty combination. Don’t overtake your cookies. Cookies will continue to cook on hot cookie sheet when removed from oven. Let cookies cool completely before storing in containers. This will keep their crispness Store leftover cookies in an airtight container for 3 days room temperature.
