Description

These giant green cookies are packed with chocolate chips and two sizes of m&ms. They are super easy St. Patrick’s Day cookies.


Ingredients

Scale
  • Betty Crocker chocolate chip mix
  • 1 stick unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 egg, room temperature
  • 3/4 cup regular m&ms
  • 1 cup mini m&ms, divided
  • green food coloring (the amount will depend on how dark you want them)


Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350º and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place the regular-sized m&ms in a resealable bag and with the bottom of a cup, crush them into smaller pieces. Set aside.
  • Stir cookie mix, softened butter, and egg in a medium bowl just until dough forms.
  • Add green food coloring and stir to combine.
  • Add 3/4 cup of both size m&ms and stir until they are evenly distributed.
  • With the large scoop, place four scoops of cookie batter onto your parchment paper-lined baking sheet, leaving enough space in between each, so they can spread out.
  • Add additional mini m&ms to the top of each scoop and press them down into the cookie batter.
  • Bake for 15 minutes.
  • Remove the cookies from the oven, top with more mini m&ms, and put back into the oven for 2 more minutes.
  • Allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes before removing them to a cooling rack.
