M&M Mini Cookies with Toffee Bits

M 'n' M Cookies

These are a great all-purpose cookie.  I wanted a recipe that would hold up well in a sack lunch and be crispy and chewy all at the same time.  These nail it.

I like to line my baking sheets with parchment paper for easy release and clean up!

Author: Betsy Edwards
Ingredients
  • 3 cups (12.75 ounces or 360 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter - at room temperature (2 sticks)
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 (10.10 ounce) package m&m's minis (about 1 1/2 cups)
  • 1 cup toffee bits
Instructions
  1. Adjust oven racks to the 2 middle positions and preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).  Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.  Set aside.

  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, cream of tartar and salt.  Spoon your flour into your measuring cup, don’t scoop.  Better yet, invest in a scale.  Set aside.

  3. Cream together the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until smooth, a couple minutes.  Add vanilla and water then beat in the eggs one at a time. Drop by large spoon-fulls onto parchment paper.

  4. Bake for about 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until edges are nicely browned. Transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
MAKE AHEAD NOTE:
  1. Cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, and frozen for up to 1 month.  Freeze your baked cookies on the baking sheets lined with the parchment paper first, until firm, and then transfer them to a freezer bag or another airtight container.  

  2. When ready to serve take frozen baked cookies out of their containers and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to thaw at room temperature.

Recipe Notes

Spoon your flour into your cup, don’t scoop. Better yet, invest in a scale.

Dutch Oven Peach Cobbler

This lovely summer dessert combines sweet juicy peaches with a crunchy, buttery, golden brown cobbler. I served this at our Young Men and Young Women Church Camp, but it’s just as perfect for your family’s summer dinner cooked in the oven!

Crunchy Gooey S’mors Bars

If you want all the fabulous flavors and texture of s’mores in a super easy s’mores bar, these are way better than cooking over a campfire. Great for your family as a snack over the Thanksgiving holiday or give away for Christmas gifts if they last that long.

Best Apple Cake

This amazing apple cake combines sweet juicy fresh Honey Crisp apples with brown sugar and toasted pecans for an unbelievably moist, sweet, apple-y, crunchy desert you don’t want to miss! What a great way to welcome in fall.

Peaches and Cream Bars

It's time for some peachy, juicy, crunchy, brown sugary goodness of summer. These melt-in-your-mouth moist, Peaches & Cream bars are a perfect dessert to celebrate summer.  The crunchy, brown sugary crust just sends them over the top. The 'peach pie' smells coming from your oven will lure you to try a bite (or a pan) for yourself!

French Apple Custard Pie with Creme Anglaise Sauce

This French Apple Custard Pie is the perfect holiday dessert! This golden, flaky pie crust is sweet and delicious with crunchy bits of sanding sugar. The tart apples are held together in a velvety-smooth custard filling with a creamy, rich sauce that really takes your pie over the top. Only YOU will know how EASY it comes together. Your family and friends will love it!
