The first treat of the week – Double M&M cookies.   They are like a chocolate chip cookie, but instead od chips, I used two types of m&ms – mini and regular size.  

Remember to scoop your flour from your flour bag into your measuring cup so you get the right amount. 

I recommend chilling the dough for a few hours before baking to help keep the cookies thick.   And, preheat your oven before baking so the oven cycles to the right temp and you get the perfect cookie.

• Ingredients list
• 1/2 cup butter, melted and placed in a bowl in the fridge for 10 to 15  minutes to cool it down
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup brown sugar, firmly packed into measuring cup
• 1 egg
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 1/2 cups flour
• 1/4 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 cup mini m&ms
• 1/2 cup m&ms

Directions – in a bowl, blend melted butter, sugar and brown sugar.   Add egg and vanilla.  Fold in dry ingredients.  Blend in m&ms.   Divide dough into thirds.  Then divide each third of dough into thirds.  Chills doughs a few hours.   Preheat oven to 350 degrees.   Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.  Stagger cookies on sheet, like below.  

Bake for 9 to 11 minutes, no longer than that.  Cool completely.   Store in covered container.
