Can you bake with regular M&Ms?
YES! I love using all kinds of M&Ms in cookies, treats, and desserts! Their bright colors are so fun to use – especially during holidays! Wether it’s regular M&Ms, mini M&Ms, and even peanut M&Ms, find the right one for your baked goodies!
What makes a cookie moist and chewy?
There are many tricks to making your cookies moist and chewy! Things like adding 2 eggs instead of just 1 to your recipe (this Chocolate Chip M&M Cookies Recipe calls for 2 eggs), using butter instead of margarine, and making sure to use brown sugar instead of just white sugar. These are all great ways to keep your cookies soft and chewy! YUM!
Can I add cornstarch to my cookies?
Cornstarch is a great ingredient to thicken puddings and pie fillings, and it can be an option for cookies. When added to cake and cookie recipes, is causes them to be crumbly and tender. So if you’re looking for your dessert to be more tender, you might try adding cornstarch to your ingredient list.
