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!

Triple Chip Cookies

Today I made triple chip cookies - white chocolate, dark chocolate and milk chocolate chips. First, preheat your oven to 375 F. The list of ingredients are: 2 1/4 cup flour 1 tsp. Baking soda 1 tsp. salt 1 cup softened butter 3/4 cup white sugar 3/4 cup Brown sugar 1 tsp. vanilla extract 2 large eggs 1 3/4 cup chocolate chips (or whole 11.5 oz. bag) In a small bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda and salt. In a larger bowl cream the butter, the two sugars, and the vanilla extract  together. Add the eggs, the stir the flour mixture in and add the chocolate chips. The dough gets slightly thick, do you may have to use your hands to finish mixing the dough. Form the cookie dough into small to medium sized balls. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 10-15 minutes depending on your oven. Place onto a cooling rack to set and cool. Let them cool for 5 minutes or so. Then, enjoy! - The Junior Baker

Chocolate Donuts

With the two doughnut pans I received for Christmas for a relative, I made chocolate donuts using this recipe  here . The ingredients are flour, cocoa, baking soda, salt, melted butter, eggs, white sugar, brown sugar, buttermilk, or regular milk mixed with vinegar.The recipe she gives only makes about 6 doughnuts, so I had to double my recipe. First, preheat your oven to 350. Grease your doughnut pans. In a small bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, cocoa, and salt. In a larger bowl, mix together the wet ingredients. Then, mix the wet and dry together. Then fill your pans with the batter. I tried using the piping bag technique, but I didn't use a piping tip and I cut the hole too big, so that didn't turn out well that time. But, if you don't cut your hole too big, the piping bag technique is probably the easiest to do. Bake them in the oven for 8-10 minutes.Let them cool in the pans for 2-3 minutes, then try to take them out. You want...

Snickerdoodles

Since Fall is here, I thought I would post a fall themed recipe. So I usually use the recipe I have in my Betty Crocker cookbook, but today I wanted to try something different. I went online and found this recipe from Cookies and Cups, so check out her blog. I think I will probably use the Betty Crocker recipe, so I will tell you more about that at the end of this post. As usual when creaming butter and sugar, you really want to make sure you do it well. I think I creamed mine for at least 3 minutes. More time, such as 5 minutes, would be even better. Once the butter is all creamed together with the sugars, you are going to add your egg and egg yolk one at a  time.   Before we mix the eggs, we are going to add our baking soda, cream of tartar, salt, cinnamon, and vanilla. I didn't include the clip of me adding the baking soda because I didn't want you to get it confused with the cream of tartar, but don't worry, I added it. So once all of that is is ...
