They totally gave that peanut butter vibe! They were so crunchy, creamy, and chewy! And the insides were packed with those melty M&Ms! They were just so balanced! My husband said they were the best cookies he's ever had! They were simple to make and didn't take much time or ingredients! And because these cookies were simple to make, this is the perfect recipe to tackle with your littles if you enjoy involving them your kitchen endeavors! These would be perfect to take with you to a holiday party, a work potluck, or a kid's birthday party!
