Pretty M&M Flower Cookies 2-Ingredients Easy Recipe

How cute are these Spring flower cookies? They’re such an easy cookie to make, elevating ready-to-bake cookie dough into an eye-catching and cheerful dessert.

Using M&M’s as easy dessert decorations has been making its way around social media as viral TikTok recipe hacks, like making cute M&M bunnies for Easter. These M&M flowers are a similar idea, simply putting M&M’s together in the shape of a flower.

I wanted to make the cookies even more fun and cheerful, so I paired the flowers with pretty funfetti sugar cookies.

If you use ready-to-bake cookie dough, this becomes a 2-ingredient recipe that you can have done in less than 20 minutes.

Let’s make some floral cookies!

Ingredients

Steps to make (RECIPE NAME HERE)

1. Pre-heat oven according to your cookie package. Arrange cookies on baking sheet.

2. Sort M&M’s for each flower, with one M&M for the floral center and 6 M&M’s of a different color for the petals. Make enough flower sets for the number of cookies you’re baking. For larger cookies, prepare two flowers per cookie. TIP: I used a muffin tin to keep sorted M&M’s organized.

3. Bake cookies according to package instructions. Do not overcook since softer cookies are easier to press in the M&M’s.

4. When cookies are done, move as quickly as possible to add M&M’s (even better, have someone else help you so it’s even faster). Press the floral center M&M into the cookie and then press in the 6 petals around the center. You must work quickly because you need to press in the M&M’s before the cookies cool and become firm.

5. Allow cookies to cool before removing from the baking sheet to allow M&M’s to set.  

6. Enjoy!
