This is a twist on my regular M&M cookie recipe. The dark cocoa looks great with these Halloween M&Ms. SPOOKY. It also makes a nice cookie for ice cream sandwiches. Say it with me, ooh, aahh.

Ingredients:
3/4 cup butter
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
1 tsp vanilla
2 eggs
1-1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup Valhrona cocoa powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 package M&Ms

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cream together butter or margarine, brown sugar, vanilla, and sugar until fluffy. Add the 2 eggs.

Combine flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt. Add to butter mixture.

Once combined, carefully stir in the M&Ms. YES, the whole bag. Drop by teaspoon on baking sheets - or if you GIANT cookies, make big balls and place about 6 on a sheet. Both work great.

Bake for 8 -10 minutes, a little longer for extra crispness. Let cool on a wire rack.

Once cooled, take it that one step further and put a scoop of ice cream in between two cookies. You won’t believe how tasty and addictive this is.
