Christmas M&M Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients:

3/4 cup packed brown sugar

3/4 cup granulated sugar

1 stick butter, softened

4 ounces butter flavored crisco

3 eggs

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 1/2 cups flour

1 bag semi-sweet chocolate chips

1/2 cup christmas M&M's

1/2 cup dark christmas M&M's

Make It:

Preheat oven to 350. In a mixing bowl beat together sugar, butter, shortening, and brown sugar until creamy. Add in eggs one at a time, mixing each one in before adding the next. In a separate bowl sift together flour, salt, and baking soda. With mixer on low, slowly pour in flour mixture, a little at a time. Once all flour is poured in, mix until completely combined. Gently fold in chocolate chips and M&M's. Drop tablespoons of dough( I use a melon baller)onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 10 minutes, remove from oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes on cookie sheet, then move cookies to a rack and allow to cool completely. Enjoy!
