Spring has sprung, my friends, and I couldn’t be happier! This spring has been a little rough for me though so far. I gave up sweets for lent…I know I know what was I thinking. Obviously I wasn’t because I’m seriously dying. Sugar addiction is real people and I’m actually going through withdrawals. I’ll be honest though, I have cheated a couple times and today was one of those days. Although if it counts for anything I only had one bite…I swear!
Just because I’m not eating sweets doesn’t mean I’m going to stop baking! I couldn’t resist making these adorable and delicious spring M&M cookies. I mean, how cute are they?! I had to. I ended up making a ton of these cookies this morning and decided to give them out to my neighbors as a little spring surprise. This is why I had to sneak a bite though you guys, I had to make sure they were good enough to give away 😉 They were amazing and it took everything in my power not to eat ten of them.
These are the perfect M&M cookies. They are loaded with white chocolate chips and M&M’s. The recipe only calls for 1/2 a cup of M&M’s to be mixed in the dough, then top the cookie dough with additional M&M’s. This is the best way to see the colorful spring M&Ms on the surface. I’m sharing the recipe below with you guys because I know you’re going to love it!
