M&M’s are a fun addition because they add that pop of color, crunch, and a little extra chocolate to an already delicious cookie. You can make these cookies for a hoiday or seasonal by using the special seasonal M&M bags. I have even made them a little extra by using the Peanut M&M’s!

Chocolate Chip M&M Freezer Cookie Dough

The dough only takes about 10 – 15 minutes to make. I love to make a batch of dough and keep it in an airtight container in the fridge, or drop it by rounded tablespoonfuls (Love love love using a cookie scoop for these) on a baking sheet and freeze he dough balls. Once frozen, put them in an airtight container. Bake following the recipe when ready to enjoy.

Gluten Free Chocolate Chip M&M Cookies

Changing recipes to make them gluten free can sometimes be difficult. This recipe works beautifully. I had the best results using a gluten free baking mix in place of the flour. I used Aldi brand, but any brand of Gluten Free Baking Mix should work. The M&M’s are gluten free. As always check all of your food labels beause brands can change their formulations.

Notes

Freezing/refrigerating dough

Prepare the dough and refridgerate as is, or drop in balls on a baking sheet an freeze. Once frozen store in an airtight container. When ready to enjoy place frozen dough on a cookie sheet and follow the original baking instructions.

Higher Temp Trick

You can bake these cookies at 375 F. The result will be a chewyier cookie. The outside will brown slighty faster. So, if you love a super chewy cookie...this is for you!
