Ingredients

  • 2 cups shortening
  • 2 cups brown sugar
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 4 teaspoons vanilla
  • 4 eggs
  • 4 cups flour
  • 4 tablespoons flour
  • 12 cup flour
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 14 ounces M&M's plain chocolate candy

Method

  • Cream together shortening and sugars.
  • Add vanilla and eggs, then dry ingredients.
  • Add the flour as the recipe states, in those increments, mixing at each addition.
  • Bake for 8 min at 375 on an ungreased cookie sheet.
  • Do Not Over bake.
  • I know the flour looks weired but thats the way Sharon did it and hers all ways turned out great-- I tried doing it differently and they were not as good.
