The Best M&M Cookies

I’ve made these cookies so often I could make them with my eyes closed. They are my masterpiece. I personally prefer to use large pizza stones to cook the cookies on over a baking sheet. I’ll always swear that stoneware adds the perfect crunch to any cookie and this recipe is no different. If you opt to use a cookie sheet over stoneware, I highly recommend using a Silpat Baking Mat. I would also being doing you an injustice if I didn’t give you the hookup for the best cookie scoop. James helps me make these cookies regularly and he loves to use the scoop, so, for what it’s worth, it’s toddler-approved.
