It doesn’t take long for these JUMBO ‘Soft Batch’ M&M  Cookies to disappear.  Enjoy these soft, thick and buttery m&m cookies with a large glass of milk or make ice cream sandwiches!  That is what I planned to do with 2 cookies I had hidden away.  Umm…Obviously I did not hide them well enough.

The story goes like this…
  • I say: “Who wants JUMBO?”
  • They say: “Depends…Uhhh…JUMBO what?”

I shout: ” JUMBO ‘Soft Batch’ M&M  Cookies!”

Holy Texas!  I never saw people move so fast!!   It was like the “maddest, clumsiest, arms flailing about” 50 yard dash into the kitchen, crossing the finish line at in new record time.  The finish line being, the plate of JUMBO ‘Soft Batch’ M&M  Cookies.

I mean, who in tarnation can resist freaking jumbo-sized M&M Cookies?

These cookies have 2 secret ingredients too! Instant pudding and butter extract.  So you get, soft, thick, fluffy and buttery cookies loaded with M&Ms and chocolate chips. Not a bad combination, right?

And look, the picture below, there’s a bite out of that cookie in the middle!  I wonder who could have done that?

So, I did not get a picture of my ice cream sandwich idea to share, thanks to my loving and wonderful hubby. (He tried to deny it, but I know who eats the hidden cookies.  There is only 2 of us here, so….yea.

  1. Jenny I heard those caramel M&Ms were to die for! I bet they tasted great in these cookies and I can’t wait to try them. Thanks so much for sharing!! 🙂

  2. These were perfect for what I was looking for. Had the new caramel m&ms want to use them in a cookie. Substitute them for the regular m&ms. Turned out pretty and great. (Cake flour can be substituted for the flour add 2 tbsp per cup)

  3. Thanks for your answer last doubt , the powder pudding has to be prepare or use just the powder without anything?

  4. Hi I live in Mexico city, thanks for the recipe, I just have a doubt, the instant pudding that use is the powder (the box like jell-o ) or the pudding that sell in the supermarket ready to eat. Thanks

  5. I love adding pudding to my cookies! It makes them super chewy and delicious 😀 Jumbo anything with M&Ms and I’ll be there before you know it! These cookies look simply amazing!

  6. These look amazing!! I love m&m cookies. I hated my first job out of college but whenever we had big meetings there were always m&m cookies. This reminds me of that nice moment at work!
