Yummy M&M Cookies

I made these cookies for dessert after dinner one night and was not really expecting anything spectacular. Boy was I wrong. It was one of those eyes roll to the back of your head recipes. So yummy! They were gooey and chocolatey and the m&m's give a nice little crunch. You have to give these a try.....why are you still sitting there! Go!
