Cookies are one of my family’s favorite treats.  The kids especially love cookies if they get to help make the cookies.  So when I decided to make this M&M Cookie recipe, I knew I’d have lots of little hands to help me.

What I like about this m&m cookie recipe is that you can change up the color of the m&ms for any occasion.  Since Easter is just around the corner, we used the pastel Easter bag of m&ms for these cookies.  Luckily most of the m&ms made it to the cookies and not in my kids tummies. 🙂

    These cookies look fabulous. I love M&M and my son loves cookies and M&Ms.
    Are you still hosting a link party or am I just not looking in the right place?
    Ok, now I just watched your video, love the little helping, hands, makes me miss my little ones that are all grown up.
    Let me know if the link party is moved or you are just not hosting. I am on the mailing list so I will get all your new posts.

      Hi Susan! We actually stopped hosting the link party. We had too many other projects coming up this year and needed to move on. Thank you for linking up with us and coming back to see what we’ve been up to. Have a good week.
