Frequently Asked Questions About M&M's cookie dough
Is M&M's cookie dough safe to eat raw?
No, not if it is ordinary baking dough: raw eggs and untreated flour can carry harmful germs. For a no-bake version, use a recipe specifically made for eating raw, with heat-treated flour and no raw egg.
How do you make M&M's cookie dough?
M&M's cookie dough is made by mixing M&M's into a cookie base usually made with flour, butter, sugar, egg, and vanilla. Fold the candies in at the end to keep them whole and reduce color streaks in the dough.
Do you bake M&M's cookie dough?
Yes, M&M's cookie dough is usually baked into cookies. Leave space between portions on the baking sheet, since the dough spreads, and follow the recipe’s bake time so the edges set while the centers stay tender.
Why do cookies made from M&M's cookie dough spread too much?
Cookies made from M&M's cookie dough often spread when the butter is too soft, the dough is warm, or the baking sheet is still hot. Chill the dough before baking and place each batch on a cool sheet.
Do M&M's melt in M&M's cookie dough when baked?
The candy shells on M&M's usually help them keep their shape in M&M's cookie dough, although the chocolate inside softens. Pressing a few extra candies onto the cookies after baking also keeps their colors easy to see.
Can you freeze M&M's cookie dough?
Yes, M&M's cookie dough freezes well. Portion it before freezing in an airtight container; thaw the portions in the refrigerator before baking, or allow extra baking time if you bake them from frozen.
How should you store M&M's cookie dough?
Keep M&M's cookie dough covered in the refrigerator and bake dough containing raw egg within a few days. Store baked cookies in an airtight container once they have cooled completely.
Which M&M's work best in M&M's cookie dough?
Classic milk-chocolate M&M's are the usual choice for M&M's cookie dough, but other varieties can work too. Chop larger candies so they distribute more evenly and are easier to bite into in the finished cookies.
Can you bake M&M's cookie dough in an air fryer?
Yes, you can bake M&M's cookie dough in an air fryer in small batches. Use a suitable lined pan, leave room for spreading, and check early because air fryers vary and the cookies may bake faster than in an oven.
Why are cookies made from M&M's cookie dough hard?
Cookies made from M&M's cookie dough can turn hard if they bake too long or the dough contains too much flour. Take them out when the edges are set but the centers still look slightly soft; they firm up as they cool.

What is M&M's cookie dough?
M&M's cookie dough is a sweet cookie mixture studded with colourful M&M's candies, in the style of American chocolate-chip cookies. It is generally portioned and baked into cookies; homemade versions use familiar baking ingredients such as flour, butter and sugar.
Baked, the edges turn lightly crisp while the middle stays soft, with crunchy candy pieces throughout. Serve the cookies with coffee or tea, or pack a few as an occasional lunchbox treat. The dough is energy-dense and high in sugar and fat: it provides 470 calories per 100 g. For a less rich serving, make smaller cookies and pair them with fresh fruit.
