Texas Sized M&M Cookies image

This is actually a Chocolate Chip Recipe; but the regular cookies weren't fun enough for the big game! This recipe works great for way oversized cookies the guys especially like. I add M&Ms because they are so popular and colorful, but you could add any kind of chunk chocolate candy you like. Try White Chocolate with chopped...

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb butter
2 c dark brown sugar (packed)
1 1/2 c granulated sugar
24 oz m&m candies
3 large eggs
2 Tbsp pure vanilla extract (mexican or madagascar bourbon work best!)
6 c all purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 tsp salt

Steps:

  • 1. Cream the butter and sugars. Add vanilla, eggs and M&Ms.
  • 2. In a separate bowl, blend flour, baking soda and salt. Add to the egg and candy mixture. Mix well without over mixing (it makes cookies tough).
  • 3. Make balls about 2 "in diameter and place on an ungreased light aluminum cookie sheet (I use air cushioned). Flatten each ball with the palm of your hand, to about 3/8 of an inch thick. Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes (depending on how hot your oven gets). Remove cookies when the outer edges of the cookies are barely brown. Allow to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before removing to cooling racks to cool completely. Makes about 1 1/2 dozen very large cookies; for more, either make another batch or make 'em smaller.
