M&M®, Semisweet and Milk Chocolate Chip Cookies

M&M®, Semisweet, Milk Chocolate Chip Cookies

I made these delicious cookies today with semisweet chocolate chips, milk chocolate chips, and Peanut M&Ms.® It's kind of one of those cookies that you use what ya got. They are great! You can't tell in the photo but they are big! 

Double Scoop Big Cookies
For Large Cookies

Step 1. I use an ice cream scoop for the big scoop and a regular-sized cookie scoop to add another scoop to the top of the ice cream scoop.

Step 2. Then push down slightly on the stacked scoops. By doing this you will make your cookies nice and ooey gooey in the middle and crunchy on the outside.

Look for my new cookie cookbook, My Olde Country Home: Vintage Cookie Recipes, coming out soon on Amazon. You can get a sneak-peek of the book here. This big cookie is not in it, so I will share the recipe with you. 

M&M®, Semisweet and Milk Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients

1/2 cup salted butter

1/2 cup shortening

1-1/2 cups brown sugar

2 eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2-1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips

1/2 cup milk chocolate chips

1/2 cup Peanut M&M's®

Instructions

1. Combine the butter, shortening, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla, and mix well.

2. In a second bowl combine the flour, baking soda and salt.

3. Add the flour mixture one cup at a time into the wet ingredients. Next add the semisweet chocolate chips, milk chocolate chips and Peanut M&Ms®.

4. These are large cookies - about 4" x 4". But you can make them any size you like. Place them on a parchment paper-lined cookie sheet. For large cookies, use an ice cream scoop and then add a smaller scoop on top. Once the smaller scoop is on, press down slightly. You can only fit 6 on the cookie sheet at a time. For normal-sized cookies, place small scoops of dough on the lined cookie sheet about 2 inches apart - usually about 12 per cookie sheet.

5. For large cookies, bake in a preheated 350-degree F oven for 15 minutes. Take them out of the oven and shape into circles with a heat-proof spatula. The dough is hot and soft enough to do this. Once you are happy with their shape place them back in the oven for 5 more minutes. If you are making smaller cookies, just bake them for 8 to 10 minutes.

6. As soon as the cookies come out of the oven place more chocolate chips and M&Ms® on top of each cookie.

7. Let the cookies cool on a baking rack and enjoy! They are really delicious when still slightly warm.

Homemade No-Churn Ice Cream Sundaes

Image
Homemade ice cream sundaes from scratch!  I have had a hankering for ice cream lately. I really enjoy making it at home with ingredients I can pronounce. No fancy machine needed! I like to embellish my sundaes a bit with homemade chocolate ganache sauce or strawberry sauce. You can stick a chocolate caramel turtle on your chocolate sundae as well. Yum!  Am I eating them all myself? No! I always share with my family, of course!  I made them just in time too because I started to get a sore throat last night. This ice cream really feels soothing going down. It's so creamy and smooth.  With the recipe for the vanilla ice cream below, you can use it as a base for whatever kind of ice cream you want to make. Just add fruits and sauces to change the flavor. You can add peanut butter too. The sky's the limit. To freeze, I put the ice cream in Glad® plastic containers. They come with lids and keep the ice cream fresh. You can find them next to the freezer bag aisle at your gr...
