Then mix in 1/4 cups of the Mini M&Ms and 1/2 cup of the Mini Chocolate Chips.

Brownie M&M Christmas Cookies rolled in Mini M&Ms

Use a cookie scoop (I used a 2 tablespoon scoop) to make the cookie dough balls. Then roll each cookie dough ball in the rest of the Mini M&Ms.

(You can either roll just the top of the cookie dough ball or the entire cookie. If you are going to roll the entire cookie dough ball, you will need extra Mini M&Ms. I just rolled the tops of the cookies.)

Now place your cookie dough balls on the baking sheet and bake for 8 minutes.

Christmas M&M Chocolate Brownie Cookies Ingredients

Christmas M&M Chocolate Brownie Cookies

Yields: 19 – 20 cookies
Preparation time: 15 minutes
Baking time: 8 minutes
Additional time: 12 minutes

Ingredients:
1 box of dark chocolate brownie mix (I used Betty Crocker 19.9 ounce box)
1/4 cup all purpose flour
2 eggs
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 tablespoon chocolate syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup mini Christmas M&Ms + extra to garnish (I used one 11 oz bag of Christmas Mini M&Ms to cover the tops – you will need more if you roll the entire cookie.)
1/2 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 375 and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium/large mixing bowl, mix the brownie mix and flour together with a fork.
Add the eggs, melted butter, chocolate syrup, and vanilla and mix well – you can use a fork for this step or a hand mixer on low.
Add abo!ut ¼ cup of Mini M&Ms to your batter and ½ cup mini chocolate chips.
Use a 2 tablespoon cookie scoop for each cookie dough ball and place them about 2” apart on the baking sheet.
Roll the top of each cookie dough ball in the remaining M&Ms and place back on the cookie sheet.
Bake for 8 minutes and remove from the oven.
Let cool completely on the baking sheet before transferring to a cooling rack.

Notes:
● If you want to roll the entire cookie in M&Ms you will need extra M&Ms. For this recipe I just rolled the top of the cookie dough ball in the M&Ms.
● If you choose to roll the entire cookie dough ball, the cookies will not spread out as much.
● Cookies will bake quickly. You want the edges to look matte and the center soft and glossy. Do not over-bake these cookies.
● Cookies can be stored at room temperature for up to one week.

Brownie Christmas Cookies with a bite taken out on a plate

Can you use regular M&Ms for baking?

Mini M&Ms are best for this Christmas Recipe. You’ll need extra Mini M&Ms to coat the entire cookie. If you use regular M&Ms, you won’t be able to coat the cookie as well.

Why do M&Ms not melt in cookies?

Because of their thin candy coating. This allows them not to melt when baked. Although the inside of the M&M will begin to melt, the outside will retain it’s shape. Making them super fun and festive to bake with!

Can I use a box of regular brownie mix?

Yes! These cookies work great with a regular brownie mix or a dark chocolate brownie mix.

Use whatever you have or your preference! I love the deep chocolate color of the dark chocolate, but the taste doesn’t change too much between the two.
