Whole Wheat M & M Cookies

Here is my mom’s recipe for some really yummy M&M cookies I made a few days ago - which are really healthy too!

In a large bowl mix together:

  • 1 c. butter
  • 1 c. butter flavored Crisco
  • 2 heaping cups brown sugar
  • 3/4 c. white sugar

Add to above ingredients:

  • 5 medium sized eggs (or 4 extra large eggs)
  • 2 T. pure vanilla

Sift together and then gradually add to above ingredients:

  • 5 c. whole wheat flour (my mom grinds up the wheat and spelt berries together and flax seed)
  • 2 t. salt
  • 2 t.  baking soda
  • 1 t. baking powder

Also add:

  • 3 c. instant oatmeal
  • 24 oz. bag of M&Ms

 

Bake @ 375 degrees.  9-10 minutes per batch.

 

Note:  We find the cookies bake best on a baking stone. :)

  2. Oops! I was going to mention in my post that I wasn’t able to get a picture of the actual cookies I baked, due to my camera battery going dead, :( so I substituted the one from Jupiter Images until I can get mine up!

    The post just didn’t seem complete without an M&M cookie picture along with the post!

    All other food pics on this blog I have taken myself.

  3. Hi Kira! It’s been a while since I stopped by your blog and commented, so I thought I’d leave you another one. :) Those cookies look (and sound!) good! Occasionally Mom makes Chocolate Chip cookies which are really good too, but I imagine M&M cookies would be good as well!
