Christmas Oatmeal M&M Cookies are perfectly soft, chewy and loaded with white chocolate & holiday M&M’s. Perfect for Santa’s cookie plate!
With so many cookies to choose from, oatmeal will always be my absolute favorite. I don’t make them as often as I’d like but when I do, I love changing up the add-ins to make them more fun.
They are extra rich with the chocolate candy goodness and bake up soft and chewy with light crispy edges.
The warm and cozy graham cracker flavor from the cookie butter (Biscoff) makes these cookies so comforting and homey while balancing out the rich sweetness from the white chocolate chips.
They also come together easily without having to use your mixer. Although you can bake them right away, I totally recommend chilling them for at least 30 minutes so they bake up nice and thick.
These would make the perfect addition to Santa’s cookie plate alongside a nice tall glass of cold milk.
