So, I am into my fourth week of my diet. I’m a bit bummed because the scale is only showing minimal weight loss. That’s really frustrating!
However, on the bright side, my clothes are fitting better and I bought a pair of shorts a size smaller yesterday! Hooray! So, I guess that’s proof that it IS worth keeping it up.
I’ve also been drawing strength from other bloggers who are participating in a 5K Challenge over at Red Faces Runners. I’m not running right now, just swimming three times a week. I figure I can run inside all winter long. I love my “me” time. Being in the water is so relaxing, and I don’t have the time or distractions to think about stuff. I just swim and breathe.
Oh, and sometimes I sing in my head, “Just keep swimming, just keep swimming.” Thanks, Dory!
So, these are the Easiest Monster Cookies Ever! And I mean EVER!!
Dump a bag of sugar cookie mix into a bowl and mix it with a stick of butter – per the instructions.
To that, dump in a bag of M&M’s Snack Mix. I used the Salty and Sweet mix with Pretzels, Almonds, and Raisins.

Measure out the cookies as big as you like. I used my tablespoon cookie scoop.
Bake at 350 for 7-10 minutes

Allow to cool… if you can…
And gobble up!
I’m sure you can make your own Sugar Cookie dough and toss in the bag of M&M’s. Nothing wrong with that. But if you are like me, and your kid(s) are bugging you for cookies, this is the way to go!
These were fast, fun, easy, and DELICIOUS! And that’s all that matters.

Thanks Michelle. I have officially lost 5 pounds and I am so excited. I'm going to have to find something else to do in September.
Well, now I am totally craving cookies and it is way too late to bake here!!! Your cookies look awesome and I love love love how easy they are!!! My kind of cookie:-)
Fun, simple, and easy. The kids will love them!
All of the add-ins sound so good, it is so convenient that they are in one bag! I love monster cookies, so much yumminess in each bite!
Do I add the egg as well? The same sugar cookie dough u used, is what I have. BTW they look amazing. & great Job with the diet
No, I did not add the egg. The bag had instructions for roll out cookies and non-rollout cookies. I followed the non-rollout cookie instructions.
Thanks for stopping by.
they look fabulous!!
As soon as I saw these, I was taken back to my childhood! I used to make Monster Cookies with my mom, my childhood best friend, and her mom. Yummy!
