Sugar Cookie Jewels

Ingredients

230 gr butter
200 gr granulated sugar
1 egg
4 gr vanilla extract
250 gr all purpose flour
5 gr baking soda
1 pkg mamp
1 granulated sugar as needed

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy; add egg and vanilla. Combine flour and baking soda; add to creamed mixture just until blended. Stir in M&M's Chocolate Baking Bits. Shape dough into 3 cm balls. Place on greased cookie sheets about 5 cm apart. With bottom of a glass dipped in sugar, flatten dough very slightly so as not to crush the baking bits. (NOTE: Very important to keep the balls of dough small and just barely flattened because these SPREAD out a lot.) Bake 10 to dozen minutes or until edges are light golden; let cool 1 minute before removing to wire racks to cool completely. Store in tightly covered containers.
