Make The Best Of What's Around

CHOCOLATE Cookies

This is a delicious, easy recipe that was in my Mom's recipe box! It was given to her by a family friend years ago, and I thought I'd pull it out and give it a try. It originally calls for peanut butter chips, but I had M&M's on hand.

(they are the fall colored M&M's so they worked perfect!)

My son Easton was seriously ready to taste them!! Hope you'll give them a try, ENJOY!

1 1/4 Cup Butter or Marg. softened

2 Cups Sugar

2 Eggs

2 tsp Vanilla Extract

*Beat together Butter and Sugar till light and fluffy then add the Eggs and Vanilla

*In a separate bowl mix together these dry ingredients:

2 Cups Flour

3/4Cup Cocoa

1tsp Baking Soda

1/2 tsp Salt

*When these are combined, slowly add into the wet ingredients.

Then gently fold in 1 bag of M&M's
(again, you can substitute with peanut butter, or white chocolate chips..whatever taste you like)

You can make these as big or as small as you like :)

Bake @ 350 degrees for 9-10 min. If they are bigger, 10-13 min

ENJOY!
