If you love M&M's then you'll love these cookies. These biscuits taste just like the M&M's biscuits you get at Subway. The candy-coated pieces of milk chocolate really make these biscuits fun, and would be ideal for a special occasion such as a kids birthday party. The only tricky part of the recipe is trying not to eat the M&M's before they make it into the cookie dough.
Prep time: 10 minutesIngredients:
3/4 cup white sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
250g butter (room temp)
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla essence
2 1/4 cups plain white flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 packet of M&M's (250g)
Directions:
Combine white and brown sugar into a bowl with the butter and cream (about 2 minutes with an electric eggbeater on high).
Add 1 egg at a time and beat into mix. Finally stir in vanilla essence.
Combine flour, baking soda and salt in another bowl and mix together before adding to wet mix. This dough tastes so good you know the cookies are going to be yum!
Finally stir in the M&M's.
Use a level tablespoon to measure out the cookie dough. These cookies will spread a little so leave a bit of space between each cookie. Bake on a oven tray lined with baking paper at 180°C for 8 to 10 minutes until golden brown.

Hi do you not melt the butter
Yes these will spread due to the high butter content...that is part of the yum factor. Kayla you weren't supposed to wait for them to rise (that's why you burnt them). Just cook until golden brown. They harden when they cool down.
Just made these... Stuffed up two batches. They didn't rise and just burned but they were soft? Is it baking powder instead of baking soda as it says in the recipe...
Just made these... their GOOD!!! but definetly needs milk with it quite dry but delicious!
Just made some now but wth 1/2 cup of brown and 3/4 cup white sugar and a bit less butter (so not so sugary and buttery). Put small teaspoons of them on the tray and they came out in perfectly round smaller cookies :)
There was too much butter and was really hard to mix, on the other hand, the cookies were delicious and the recipe was really easy to follow. I enjoyed making the cookies and loved the fact that there was chocolate involved in the recipe.
these bikkies are the best i had ever tasted iv now made them more than 7 times and my friends love them
This is similar to a recipe I had for a while off an american website, these seem a little flat once they cool, taste good though, if using a table spoon measure you would want to put 4 across and 3 down, total of 12 a tray so they don't spread too much and join.
i made these yesterday for my twin nieces birthday party and once the biscuits were all gone all the kids wanted more . So i made more which means the kids loved them . Fantastic recipe . i LOVE IT (=
Yum! My kids love these! Would prob recommend TSP size dollops to avoid overcrowding the tray as they do spread a bit. Awesome recipe - thanks! :-)
Awesome, they do taste like the subway ones, i also made them way too big but oh well.
Wow these look great Im going to try these for my sons, they love m&ms.
Really quick and easy to make, was a last minute thing as I had to take a shared lunch and had to make them at 9pm the night before. Everyone really liked them, I couldn't stop my dad from eating the mixture and gave him the bowl to clean lol The only thing I did wrong was made the balls too big and they all spread and the whole oven dish thing was covered so I had to cut them up and they ended up being square cookies hehe
