Christmas Cookies with M&M’s- The Perfect Festive Christmas Cookie

The classic green and red M&M’s give this cookie a fun polka dot look that screams all things Elves, Santa and snow.

Plus, they taste really good, to boot. 😉

One of my favorite parts of Christmas Time Baking is getting my kids involved. These cookies are the perfect, kid-friendly cookie. Not just for eating, but for making, too!

The balls of dough are literally rolled in those little M&M’s. This is the perfect job for tiny hands! Although, I will warn, you may want a few extra M&M’s. Those tiny things seem to disappear when kids are in charge of this step.
