Cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
This recipe makes three dozen cookies. If you don’t want that many cookies around, it’s okay to freeze them. Just slip them into a large freezer zip baggie and store in the freezer for up to 3 months. Pull out cookies as the craving strikes. I used to like to add these mini chocolate chip M&M cookies to my son’s lunchbox when he was little. He loved them!
These cookies turn out soft and yummy. Adding M&Ms (and that “secret” ingredient) makes the famous Toll House cookie recipe even better. Enjoy!
