Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 c Butter
1 c Granulated sugar
1 lg Egg
1 ts Vanilla extract
2 c All-purpose flour
1 ts Baking soda
12 oz M&M's Baking Bits
Granulated sugar -- as needed
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy; add egg and
vanilla. Combine flour and baking soda; add to creamed mixture just
until blended. Stir in M&M's Chocolate Baking Bits. Shape dough into
1" balls. Place on greased cookie sheets about 2" apart. With bottom
of a glass dipped in sugar, flatten dough very slightly so as not to
crush the baking bits. (Note: Very important to keep the balls of
dough small and just barely flattened because these spread out a
lot.) Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until edges are light golden; let cool
1 minute before removing to wire racks to cool completely. Store in
tightly covered containers.
