Peanut Butter M & M Cookies

I am such a chocolate and peanut butter junkie and these cookies hit the spot when I was looking for a yummy treat (I must admit- I probably ate tons more dough than I did actual cookies! We are actually big cookie dough fans in our family. When we were growing up, my mom would save my dad a blob of cookie dough when she made cookies so that he could have a little bite of dough when he got home from work. Is that true love or what?!)!

    Amen sista! I think if food was scarce and all we had was chocolate and peanut butter, I will surely survive! I feel bad for those who do not like chocolate or those allergic to peanut...
  4. Karli says:

    Can't wait to try these cookies!! We used to save cookie dough for my brother when he lived at home too!! He loved it!
  7. Camille says:
    So at my grocery store, the M & M bags have "Medium", "Large" and "X-Large" printed on the bags. I am so sorry that I didn't check out the ounces of the bag. It is about the same size as a bag of chocolate chips (or about 2 cups).
