Today we were hanging out and were thinking that we wanted to make some spring/Easter cookies for this weekend. Since I am visiting, I am at my mothers and don?t have my own kitchen here. After some begging and pleading, we were given the okay to use the kitchen. That meant that we were given a time limit and only had the kitchen for and hour and a half before my mother needed it back to cook dinner. This meant a search through the All-American Cookie Book that was in the kitchen to find a recipe that could be made without a trip to the store. We decided on this recipe but wanted to make sure we had enough time. This meant substituting the chocolate chips for M&Ms and skipping the steps at the end where they are rolled in more peanuts and chocolate. The recipe said that it only makes 35 cookies ? it lied, we ended up with over 4 dozen cookies! But it was worth it because these cookies are soft and chewy and taste exactly how a peanut butter cookie should taste plus who doesn?t love M&M?s?
