Mm Christmas Cookies
Mm Christmas Cookies are soft, chewy sugar cookies dotted with festive red, green, and white M&M candies—your easy, no-fuss holiday treats for sweet festive desserts.
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour King Arthur recommended
- 1/2 cup almond flour Bob’s Red Mill for extra chew
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 3/4 tsp fine sea salt
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter softened (Land O Lakes or Kerrygold)
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar C&H
- 1/4 cup light brown sugar packed
- 1 large egg room temperature
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract Nielsen-Massey
- 3 tbsp whole milk Greek yogurt for creaminess
- 1 1/4 cups holiday-themed M&M candies red, green, white
- As needed extra candies or sprinkles for topping
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone mat—this helps cookies bake evenly and makes cleanup a breeze.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat softened butter with granulated and brown sugars until light and fluffy. Mix in the egg, vanilla extract, and Greek yogurt.
- Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, then fold in the M&M candies gently.
- Shape the dough into a disc, wrap in plastic, and chill for 30 minutes.
- Scoop dough onto prepared sheets, spacing apart. Bake for 10–12 minutes until edges turn golden.
- Let cookies rest on the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
- Chill remaining dough if needed. Store baked cookies in an airtight container once cool.
Notes
Use cold butter for a flaky edge. Measure flour by spooning into the cup. Whole milk Greek yogurt keeps treats moist without weighing them down. Dough consistency should be soft but not sticky.
