    I grew up with these cookies. We had the set of books it was originally published in. We always rolled the dough into balls and then pushed several m&ms into the top. It’s delicious!

    I love Cookie Monster and I have found that his sugar cookies recipe is the best for cookie cutters! I am glad I found it again because I lost my copy and couldn’t quite remember the list of ingredients.
