Today I am here to share with you my love for COOKIES! I have a recipe to share with you for four ingredient Christmas cookies, and guess what?! You can share YOUR favorite recipes as well, because at the bottom of this post is a fun cookie link party! So read on, and then share away!
I am a sweet tooth if ever there was one. If it’s sweet and homemade, well, I’m going to be needing some of it to get in my belly. PRONTO. My favorite treat is warm cookies. Ooey, gooey cookies. So today I am going to share with you my super simple recipe for Christmas Cookies. There are only four ingredients, and they come together at lightening speed! However, they are NOT the best warm. Weird, I know. They are definitely tasty warm, but they are even better after they cool and sit for just a bit so that they get all gooey and chewy. Yum, yum, yummer.
Let’s take a quick look at the process that I used to make these and then I’ll give you the whole recipe in detail.
Gather your four ingredients: a stick of butter, a Devil’s Food cake mix, two eggs, and a bag of holiday mint M&M’s.
Dump the butter, eggs, and cake mix into a bowl and beat with an electric mixer.
Add the M&M’s and stir.
As you can see, the dough is incredibly sticky and pretty stiff. That’s ok! Place spoonfuls of dough onto a greased cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes.
Now gobble them up! YUM! The simplest Christmas Cookies that you will ever make! Enjoy!
- 1 box devil's food cake mix
- ½ cup of butter, softened
- 2 eggs
- 1 bag of Holiday Mint M&M's
- Mix all the goodies together. (The dough is pretty stiff and sticky.)
- Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes.
Now on to the link party! YAY! So fun! Link away, friends! Can’t wait to make your recipes and gain about twenty pounds. 😉

Does it have to be Devil’s Food cake mix? I went to 2 different stores and both are sold out!
Sarah Westover McKenna says
I’ve only tried it with that, but I’m sure any chocolate cake mix would work! Weird that it was sold out!!
