Ingredients

    1. 1/4 cup sugar ( or up to 1/2 cup)
    2. 1/3 cup brown sugar ( or up to 1/2 cup)
    3. 5 tablespoons butter, softened
    4. 1/3 cup vegetable shortening
    5. 1 teaspoon vanilla
    6. 1 egg
    7. 1 cup flour
    8. 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
    9. 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    10. 1/2 teaspoon salt
    11. 1 cup M&M's plain chocolate candy
    12. cooking spray

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
  2. Spray cookie sheets with nonstick cooking spray.
  3. Cream sugars, butter, and shortening together.
  4. Add in vanilla and egg; beat well.
  5. Sprinkle baking soda and salt over mixture, and add in flours; mix well.
  6. Stir in M&Ms.
  7. Measure dough by the teaspoon onto the cookie sheets. These do not spread very much, so you can put them fairly close together.
  8. Bake for about 8 minutes, or until they just start to brown.
  9. Remove from oven; allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a minute before removing them to cook completely on wire racks.
