Mouth Melting Cookie Goodness

Now that it’s summer break, I’ll be in the kitchen testing out new recipes with the kids. And this Loaded M&M Cookies recipe is such a fun one to make with your little helpers. The dough is easily made from pantry staples and the kiddos will love stirring in all the mini M&Ms. Honestly, the only real challenge is keeping them from ‘sampling’ all the dough before you can bake it! I love how they look, too. They bake up so bright and colorful, you’ll want take a plate to friends and share the cookie love!

I love baking with Mini M&Ms–the insides of the candies melt perfectly while the outside shell stays crunchy. It makes for such an amazing texture. And the cookies themselves are made from the butteriest, most delicious cookie dough base. They bake up chewy in the middle and crisp around the edges! I know you’ll enjoy them!

How to Make Loaded M&M Cookies

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper and set aside.

In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugars until smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat until well combined.

In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt. Add to the wet ingredients and mix on low until just combined.

Gently stir in 1 and 1/2 cups M&Ms on low speed or with a wooden spoon.

Scoop dough into 2-tablespoon sized balls and place a few inches apart on the prepared cookie sheets. Generously press additional M&M’s all over the top of the cookie dough scoops.

Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the cookies are just starting to turn light brown around the edges and barely starting to crackle on top, rotating the cookies sheets after 5 minutes of baking time.

Let cookies cool a few minutes on the cookie sheets and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

We can't get enough of this One-Ingredient Banana We can't get enough of this One-Ingredient Banana Ice Cream! ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿฆ It may be 100+ degrees here in Dallas, but we're staying cool and content with this naturally sweet treat. Simply slice and freeze any extra-ripe bananas you have on hand, blend in a food processor, and enjoy all summer long! ๐Ÿค— #TheBakerMama

Ingredient:
6 very ripe bananas

Instructions:
1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice the bananas into 1/2-inch slices and lay flat on the parchment-lined baking sheet. Place in the freezer for 1 and 1/2 hours.
2. Remove frozen bananas from the freezer and let set out for about 5 minutes while you set up your food processor or blender. You want the bananas to soften just a bit, but still be frozen.
3. Place the bananas in the food processor and pulse/blend until smooth and creamy. Serve and ENJOY!
ย 
Notes:
It has a soft serve consistency when you first make it which is so yummy. If you want a more scoopable consistency, freeze it in a freezer-safe container for at least 2 hours. It freezes well for up to 3 months. Just let it set out of the freezer for about 5 minutes to soften a bit before scooping.
