Notes

How To Store these Halloween Candy M&M Monster Cookies When the cookies are completely cooled, store them in an airtight container for up to 7 days.
  1. Avoid overbeating the eggs. This lessens the softness of a cookie.
  2. Be sure to remove the cookies from the oven the moment the edges turn golden to avoid over baking.
  3. The touch of flaked finish salt adds a great pop! I highly recommend it. F
  4. Freeze the dough. Remove what you need from the freezer, bring to room temperature and bake as per instructions.
