Easter M&M Cookies are the soft and chewy cookies that have been missing from your life. They are easy to make and are the perfect dessert to serve up at any Easter gathering.
Spring is one of my favorite times of the year. It’s the time when the warmer weather makes it’s debut and color begins to be painted all over the place.
That’s why I love these colorful Easter cookies. They are made with the pastel colored M&M’s for a fun, chocolatey treat that is just as sweet as Spring.
My kids love helping me make these and it has quickly become one of our favorites. I’m confident it’ll become one of your favorites too!
