Our Christmas M&M Rice Krispie Cookies are soft and delicious with a wonderful extra crunch from the M&M and Rice Krispie Cereal these cookies are super yummy.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Sweet Cream, Salted Butter (Softened)
  • 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 3/4 cup Brown Sugar
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 2 teaspoon Vanilla
  • 2 1/2 cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 cups Rice Krispie Cereal
  • 1 1/2 cups Green and Red M&M Mini's

Instructions

  1. Cream the butter and sugars. Mix in the eggs and vanilla.  Add the baking soda and salt and mix well.  Fold in flour.
  2. Gently fold in Rice Krispie Cereal.
  3. Add in the Red and Green M&M Minis.  You could use regular sized M&M’s but I highly recommend using the mini version.  The tiny blast of chocolate from the M&M Mini’s really adds something special to this Christmas Cookie Recipe.  I pulled out the red and green M&M’s from two bags of M&M Minis and used that amount.  It was approximately 1 1/2 cups.
  4. Take a spoonful of dough and roll it into a ball.  Press the ball down slightly on the cookie sheet. This will help you get a more uniform cookie.
  5. Bake the cookies in an oven preheated to 375 degrees until they are golden brown on the bottom and around the edges.  It should be 8-10 minutes.
  6. Allow the cookies to completely cool before you store or freeze them.

Notes

Cookies should always be stored in an airtight container.  They should be completely cooled before storing them. Cookies stored at room temperature should stay fresh for 3-4 days. You can also keep them in the refrigerator and that extends their freshness for up to a week. If you need them to last longer, you can freeze them for up to 3 months. You can pull them out of the freezer and leave them on the counter for 1 hour and they will be ready to eat.
