Hope you guys had a great weekend! I baked these M&M Marshmallow Cookies to have a fun treat for the kids.
Let me tell you about these cookies. The recipe that I always follow comes from a slight variation of the Original NESTLÉ®TOLLHOUSE® Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe.That recipe is a really good recipe to follow. I will get around to making those for you!
My kids have been wanting some “regular” cookies for the last week or two, but I mixed it up again and did these for them. They were happy! The gooeyness from the marshmallow and the chocolate from the M&M Minis was a great combination to this basic cookie dough.
They were easy to throw together. I could take the dough and roll the cookie into a ball because the marshmallow and M&M minis really helped combine the dough together. So no need for two spoons and getting them onto a cookie sheet. Just grab and roll.
I also reduced the butter and sugar content in these as well to make them not so greasy or sweet. I really want to taste the different flavors! Lastly this makes only 2 dozen because seriously I can’t have dozens and dozens of cookies around the house every week or they will just get eaten. Which is a good thing but not always for the belly! Go make these and ENJOY!
