A nice departure from the chocolate chip cookie. I was a little short on oatmeal but added some extra flour to achieve a nice texture, and used m&m mini baking bits. I love almond extract in cookies. Yum!

Amazing recipe! Instead of 1 cup of all purpose flour, I used 1 cup of whole wheat flour. I also substituted the egg for low sodium egg beaters. My family can't stop eating these!

These were delicious!! I added butterscotch chips instead of M&Ms and baked them into bars. They were moist, gooey, and full of flavor. 5 Stars for a great cookie!

I baked these cookies last night for UFC 79 and everyone loved them. I did not have butter flavored shortening so I used 1/4 c butter and 1/4 c shortening with no adverse effect to the cookies. I also split the recipe in half before adding the candy-coated milk chocolate pieces. In half I added raisins and walnuts and in the other half I added the candy-coated milk chocolate pieces and walnuts. Both cookies were fabulous! The cookie dough tasted great also!

I am not a great cookie maker. This cookie recipe just changed that!! These were the best cookies ever!!! They kept their shape, did not spread all over the pan and were chewy!! Thank you for a WONDERFUL recipe. This will be my base recipe for every cookie from now on!

This was a great recipe!! However, the yield is kind of small. I would try doubling it next time. 2 dozen may sound like a lot, but once you start eating these you can't stop!! :) I made a few changes, because I live abroad and not all of the ingredients are available; I used butter instead of shortening, and because I only have one bag of miniature M&Ms and didn't want to use them all up, I used 1/2 cup M&Ms and 1/2 cup chocolate chip cookies. They turned out GREAT!!

I love these cookies. Easy and delicious. The almond flavoring really adds to the taste. I used half shortening and half margarine, and they turned out soft and chewy.

These cookies are very good- the almond flavoring really makes them special. Try adding a little milk in the batter as it is quite dry otherwise.

Mixture was dry & crumbly, which made for hard & dry cookies.

these are excellent!! not dry or crumbly at all. soft on the inside and slightly crisp on the outside. the small amount of almond is just perfect, so don't be tempted to add more. I made these without the M&M's -- just as an oatmeal cookie -- and they were wonderful. This would be a great chocolate chip cookie batter.

These were delicious cookies; however, I would love to know why the dough would not hold together very well. It was VERY crumbly and difficult to drop by spoonfuls. Otherwise, everyone loved them!

We have tried a lot of M&M cookie recipes, yet this one is about the best we've tasted. After the holidays, I was eager to try something that had a healthy ingredient like oatmeal in it (after weeks of a very "sugary" season!) So the next time I made treats, I tried this recipe. Everyone loved it!

I found these cookies to be dry and hard to get to stick together. I put in extra M and Ms which I wouldn't do again.

This is a very versatile recipe, and a very good one I might add. I found out, after starting the dough, that I didn't have enough candies, nor did I have almond flavoring. I used all vanilla and decided to fill the rest of the cup with the candies with pecans and raisins. I also didn't have any butter-shortening, so I put in a little butter for flavor and regular shortening. Boy, these turned out so yummy!! I will definitely use this recipe again as I know you can add almost any combination of things to the mix and it will come out yummy. Thanks Ellen, the kids, nephews, grandma and myself couldn't wait to pop them in our mouths after they got out of the oven! enjoy!

These taste great. I thought they would spread out more, they came out kind of like lumps but I enjoyed them very much.
