Favorite M&M Pudding Cookies
These soft M&M cookies are always a hit, anywhere and anytime! The dough and baked cookies both freeze beautifully. This makes a large amount of smaller cookies; you can make them larger and adjust your bake time.

Add the Flour
6
Slowly add in the flour mixture. Using dough hook attachment, fold dry and wet ingredients together just until fully incorporated
7
Add the M&M's
8
Add M&M's, saving some for pressing onto the top of cookies. Gently mix candies into the dough. (If it gets too hard to mix with wooden spoon, I use clean hands instead)
9
Chill the Dough
10
Dough will be a bit sticky. Cover tightly and chill in fridge for ⏱️ 30 minutes to ⏱️ 1 hour.
11
Preheat the Oven
12
Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
13
Bake
14
Form 1 inch balls of dough and place on parchment-lined baking sheet. Lightly press down (they don't spread too much) and place reserved M&M's on top. Bake about ⏱️ 8 minutes or just until edges look golden brown. Cookies may seem slightly underdone, but they will firm up upon cooling. Don't over bake.
15
Cool on baking sheet about ⏱️ 10 minutes, and remove to wire rack to finish cooling.

* Note: These cookies keep very well at room temp in an airtight container. Raw cookie dough can be tightly wrapped up and frozen for later use.
