Last weekend my great-granddaughter spent the weekend with me and wanted to bake some cookies. After pondering her choices for a few minutes she decided to bake Chocolate Chip Cookies with M&M candies thrown in for good measure. If you like a sweet, chocolate flavored cookie, you’ll love these!

These cookies freeze well. Let them cool completely. Pack into freezer storage bags or plastic freezer containers. Label and freeze for up to 4 months. Thaw at room temperature. I personally like mine microwaved on the high setting for 7-10 seconds and slightly warm when eating them.
Chocolate Chip M&M Candies Cookies Recipe
1 cup vegetable shortening
1 cup butter, softened
2 cups brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup sour cream
1 1/4 cups milk chocolate chips
1 cup of M&M chocolate coated candies
Mix all ingredients together in the order that they are given in the recipe. Drop by the teaspoonful onto a lightly-greased baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees F. for 10-12 minutes or until done. Remove from the oven and place on a cooling rack to cool. Once done, store them in an airtight container.

Thank you for the recipe. I like that they freeze well. and my grandsons would love to make them and eat them!
These cookies look and sound so good. I like the thinner cookie and it is great they freeze well. I like to lay cookie out on a cookie sheet and freeze them flat and then zip lock them. And I agree love them hot
These look so good. I want to make some for the family, Thank you for the recipe.
I like that these can be frozen. I live alone so I can do this to keep myself from eating them all up at once.
They look great! I am going to add this to my bookmarks. I made so many cookies last night for everyone.
