I love Valentine’s Day.

Aside from all the love and romance, I love the chocolate and goodies that come along with it too.

Valentine’s Day gives me a reason to take a little break from my diet and resolutions and just have a day filled with yummy treats.

From our Valentine Brownies to our Marbled Heart Cookies and of course, our Boozy Valentine Hot Cocoa Bombs you really have a little bit of everything to make Valentine’s Day super sweet and special.

And now these Chocolate M&M’s cookies can be added right to the top of the list!

M&M’s Cookie Tips

  • Take the cookies out even if you don’t feel like they are 100% done. Trust me, you want them to be ooey, gooey.
  • Be careful not to burn the bottoms of the cookies.
  • You can reheat any leftovers in the microwave for 5-10 seconds to get the M&M’s candies nice and gooey.
