I must really have Valentines on the brain this week, because this is the 4th Valentines post this week!
There must be love in the air here!
Today I have these yummy M&M’s Valentine cookies. This recipe has been in our family for a long time. The name of these cookies on my recipe card is: “Leora’s Chocolate Chip Cookies” This is a nickname that I have had for my sister for a long time, I don’t really even remember where it came from, but I remember saying “Leora” in a mocking tone every time I called her that! Some things just never go away, do they?
Anyway, here is my version of these yummy cookies:
I just substituted Valentine M&M’s for chocolate chips and I used butter instead of shortening. These cookies are sooo good because they are just a little bit crisp on the outside but still very chewy on the inside! Love them!
Of course you can make these for any holiday because M&M’s make different color combo’s for every holiday!
Isn’t that nice of them! I have heard that the Red Velvet ones that they have for Valentines Day, are to die for… but I can’t seem to find any anywhere, so I wouldn’t know! :(
These make a fun little gift for your Valentine, just tie them up in a cute little clear box, a cellophane bag, or on a cute plate. These would be great for your visiting teaching sisters, neighbors, or hey how about your family! Now that is a novel idea!
Hope that you are having a great Friday. Do you have anything fun planned for the weekend. I am hoping to get a new toy that I will tell you about next week!
Thanks for visiting! Love Ya!
