Ultimate M & M Cookies

This is from an M&M's recipe booklet I picked up somewhere. This does not use peanut butter like a lot of other recipes on this site with M&M's. I hope you like them.

- Stir in M&M's (and nuts if using).
- Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls about 2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets.
