Sugar Cookie Jewels

Recipe By : Brighter Baking with M&M's
Serving Size : 48 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Cookies Chocolate

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 cup butter or margarine
1 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 12 oz. pkg M&M's Baking Bits (either flavor)
granulated sugar -- as needed


Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

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-inch
balls. Place on greased cookie sheets about 2-inches 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.
