All of my late night cravings in one bite: Fudgy Dark Chocolate Cookies with M&M’s and Pretzels!  Baking cookies doesn’t get much easier than these drop brownie style cookies.  No Mixer Needed!

Confession: I have major late night snack addiction that involves Plain M&M’s and Pretzels!  So when it came time to start baking with M&M’s, I knew that I wanted to add some pretzels into the mix.

The best part is that you do not need a mixer to make these drop brownie style cookies.  Just melt and stir the ingredients on the stove top, then bake.  Super quick and easy!

These Dark Chocolate Cookies are extremely moist and fudgy.  Stuffed full of M&M’s and Pretzel pieces for that chocolaty, crunchy, sweet and salty combo.  Use Milk Chocolate M&M’s or Peanut M&M’s and your favorite type of pretzel.  Get Your M&M’s Coupon Now! {up to $2.50 off!}

Recipe Notes

*I place the pretzels in a plastic ziploc bag and use the flat side of a meat tenderizer to break the pieces.
Recipe yields approximately 30 cookies.

Be sure to pick up a few bags of M&M’s for your baking {and snacking} needs!
I almost got there too late, but luckily there were a few bags waiting for me at Walmart.
