This recipe I'm posting features M&M's. M&M's are sold in several of La Bella Baskets' gift baskets.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter flavored shortening
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup white sugar
1 egg
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1 1/2 cups rolled oats
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup candy-coated milk chocolate pieces
Directions:
1) Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
2) In a large bowl, cream together the shortening, brown sugar and white sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg and vanilla until well blended. Combine the oats, flour, baking powder and salt; stir into the creamed mixture. Mix in the candy-coated chocolate pieces. Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets.
3) Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until light golden brown.
