Crispy on the edges, chewy and soft in the center. These deep dish Halloween cookies are packed with M&Ms. Make sure to enjoy them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. So delicious and gooey! This post contains an affiliate link.

Our vampire donuts are another spooky Halloween treat that your kids will love!

What is it about jumbo cookies that make them so much fun? Our chocolate chip skillet cookie is always a crowd pleaser, and our deep dish Valentine cookies were the most popular recipe on the website last spring!

You can customize these cookies for any holiday, but today we’re focusing on Halloween. I picked up a giant container of Halloween M&Ms at Sam’s Club, determined to use them all in Halloween baking. These cookies barely dented the container. Looks like we’ll have to make more!

The baking liners that I use are not to be confused with muffin liners. These are much thicker and are coated with a non stick surface inside. They are perfect for deep dish cookies and tarts.

DEEP DISH Halloween M&M COOKIES

Because the cookies are the size of 4 cookies, they are perfect to share.

Our favorite way to eat our deep dish cookies is straight out of the oven. Add a scoop of ice cream and a couple of candy eyes. Mac loves adding “frinkles” (sprinkles), too.

Tip for making THE BEST M&M cookies: Each bite contains bits of M&Ms. This is because I chop the candies before adding them to the dough! If you haven’t tried making M&M cookies this way—you need to try it! No need to pulverize the candy, just a coarse chop.

How Big Are These Deep Dish Cookies?

How big are they? Each liner is filled with a 1/2 cup of cookie dough. Yep, 1/2 of a cup!

You’ll want to flatten the dough with your hands before baking

Then add a few extra M&Ms on top before placing them into the hot oven.

13 minutes later…

One batch makes 10 deep dish M&M cookies (or 6 deep dish cookies + 1 dozen regular sized cookies).

How To Reheat Cookies

Like any cookie, they are best right out of the oven, but will stay fresh for a few days if stored in an air tight container.

To reheat cookies, microwave for 5-8 seconds.

Is it just me or do the sprinkles look like eyelashes? Ha!

I don’t decorate for Valentine’s Day (still re I don’t decorate for Valentine’s Day (still recovering from Christmas 😂), but I always have holiday candy on hand! This year I filled the jar with petite sour hearts after hearing how amazing they are from @triedandtruemoms. They were right, we are all fans over here! Maybe more places will stock them now that they are in such demand. I ordered mine from @candynationusa (don’t waste your time looking on Amazon. They are charging twice as much for less candy).

Today we made our favorite green smoothie. It’s all about balance—-just kidding. We all know that’s a lie. I have like 10 healthy recipes on my site and 800 breads and desserts. 😂

Tip: when buying produce, buy extra to freeze. I buy an extra pineapple, an extra package of grapes, an extra bunch of bananas and an extra bag of spinach and freeze them for smoothies. I slice everything up and freeze it on baking sheets then bag it up. It makes it easy to grab a handful to toss into a blender. You can freeze entire bags of spinach too and add a handful to smoothies. I always blend my spinach and water first then add the rest of the fruit. No little spinach chunks in the smoothie that way. 🙌🏻

A great project to work on during Christmas break. She’s making herself a pink one after Christmas. We bought several colors of bulky yarn at Walmart for $2.97 each. Each skein makes 1 hat.
