FAQs

How do you keep M&Ms from bleeding in cookies? ›

Hand-mix the M&Ms into the dough.

To keep the M&Ms from bleeding color into the cookie dough, gently stir them in by hand. This also helps to avoid the candies breaking apart.

Mini M&Ms: You can use any M&Ms, but I recommend mini so there's more in each bite. If the M&Ms are larger, such as peanut M&Ms or peanut butter M&Ms, roughly chop them first. If desired, grab an extra 2 Tablespoons of M&Ms and press a few into the top of each cookie when they're warm from the oven.

If your cookies consistently come out flat, you may have selected the wrong baking temperature. If you bake cookies using too much heat, the fats in the dough begin to melt before the other ingredients can cook together and form your cookie's rise.

M&Ms are made with a hard candy shell that protects the chocolate in the center from melting. However, during baking the candy shell might slightly crack from the heat or become more incorporated into the dough. Don't worry, they still taste just as delicious!

The white coating that forms on the surface of chocolate is called bloom, and—here's the good news—it's perfectly safe to eat.

This one is a question with no real answer, because the ingredients are the exact same in both regular-sized M&M's and Mini M&M's. However, the Sustainable Nano blog did some in-depth research and concluded that it's because the candy-to-chocolate ratio is higher for Mini M&M's, making them sweeter.

Why do mini M&MS taste different than regular M&MS? It is the difference in ratio of chocolate to sugar coating that changes your perception of the taste. In a regular M&M, there is a good amount of chocolate inside, so you get more of the creamy, chocolate-y goodness as it melts on your tongue.

Cookie temperatures fluctuate, with some recipes as low as 300 degrees Fahrenheit, and a few as high as 425 degrees Fahrenheit, but most recipes land on 375 or 350 to evenly bake the entirety of the cookie.

If you enjoy your cookies soft and chewy, chances are likely the recipe contains a common ingredient that serves a very specific purpose. No, it's not granulated sugar, nor the butter. It's not the egg, all-purpose flour, or even the vanilla extract. The simple, yet oh-so-necessary component is cornstarch.

Should I use baking soda or baking powder in cookies? ›

Baking soda is typically used for chewy cookies, while baking powder is generally used for light and airy cookies. Since baking powder is comprised of a number of ingredients (baking soda, cream of tartar, cornstarch, etc.), using it instead of pure baking soda will affect the taste of your cookies.

Baking powder: Baking powder can be used to replace baking soda, though not at a 1-to-1 ratio. Because the former is not as strong as the latter, it's important to use three times the amount of baking powder as baking soda. Be aware, a slightly bitter, off-putting taste might result from using that much baking powder.

Color bleed is when one color kind of bleeds into the next once dry. This largely happens either because there is too much moisture in the icing (this can come from the recipe, consistency, environment, etc) and/or there is too much food coloring in the icing. The good new is: it's largely preventable!

Microwave them for 30 seconds then enjoy the melted magic!

Coat in Flour: Before adding the chocolate chips to your batter, toss them in a little bit of flour. Just a light dusting will do. This helps to absorb any excess moisture and gives the chips something to grip onto, helping them to stay suspended in the batter during baking.

You've seen that water is the best liquid for dissolving the candy coating from an M&M.
