M&M Cookies











M&M cookies are very colorful; and very delicious. These original cookies are delicious,  or you can make them even better by making them a chocolate M&M cookie. I am using the M&M mini milk chocolate baking chips.

If you want the recipe for the chocolate M&M cookies, it is on the back of the package. The recipe for the regular kind is:


  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 cup stick butter, softened
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
1 package (12 oz.) M&M's


To start out I creamed my brown sugar, granulated sugar, egg, and butter together.


I then added my a portion of my flour and my baking soda and salt. I mixed it well. Then I added the rest of my flour. Make sure to mix this very slowly!! If you don't you will have flour all over you!



I then folded in the M&M's.



(Note: you may have some M&M's and flour at the bottom of your bowl; don't worry about it!). I then molded the dough into balls and placed them on an un-greased cookie sheet and baked them at 375 degrees for 10-12 minutes. The time will depend on your stove. so you might have to shorten or lengthen the time. As with all cookies, the center will be soft, but will harden up in 5 minutes or so. You will no when the are done when they are golden brown. And there you are! M&M cookies!

Blue and White Swirl Cake

So here it is....my first real cake decorating video and post! I made chocolate cake, filled with chocolate icing, and covered in blue and white flowers and stars. This cake looks a little hard to make, but in reality is very easy ! To start out, I baked two nine inch chocolate cakes, let them cool, and leveled them using my cake leveler. Then I filled and stacked them. I used store bought icing to fill the cake. More info on that below. I finally crumb coated them and put them in the freezer to chill for 15 minutes. For this cake, I made some American buttercream, and dyed half of it blue. I used some blue food coloring I had on hand, and probably put about 5-6 drops of in in my buttercream. I was worried I would not have enough buttercream to pipe on the outside of my cake if I were to fill it with my buttercream. So instead of filling my cake with the buttercream, I used a can of chocolate store bought icing I had in the pantry. So I filled and crumb coated my cakes wi...

Simple Star Cake

Today I am going to show you how to make this simple star tip cake I made using Wilton tips #1M and #105! I have a video is at the bottom of the page. It is one of my longest videos (8:00 or so), but I have included the recipe I use for Chocolate and Vanilla American Buttercream. I will have the recipe for my buttercream at the bottom of the page as well. The first thing we are going to do is make our going to do is make our buttercream. I didn't record it, but I had to make more chocolate buttercream to ice the sides and top of my cake. First, you are going to take your butter and cream it really well. I creamed mine for about three minutes, and you want to cream it until it is light in color. Once your butter is creamed, you are going to start adding your powdered sugar in four parts. When you add powdered sugar, flour, or anything else of the same consistency, always start the mixer out on slow so that the powdered sugar will not make a cloud and fly up in your face. This w...
