Raspberry Scented M&M Cookies

You know when I saw these fabulous Raspberry M&M’s from Target that I was going to create another fun cookie right? Well, that I did! I thought it would be so fun to start with a raspberry butter that brings a perfectly hint of raspberry to each cookie with those delicious Raspberry M&Ms on top! Wait until you try these M&Ms, they are incredible right out of the bag, so try to leave some for the cookies 🙂

Hope you enjoy!!

Here’s your line up!

How to Make The Best Raspberry Cookies

You’ll need just about 1/2 cup of red raspberries to puree.

There are a number of ways you can puree your raspberries. I chose to just place them in my blender with 1 tablespoon water and mix until well combined. I placed the blended berries over my fine strainer to drain the juice. Make sense?

You get this beautiful berry puree. Makes the cookies smell and taste fabulous!

Drizzle 3 tablespoons of your puree into your softened butter.

Pretty!

Raspberry butter in the works!

Ahhhhh, pink raspberry butter!

Add your sugars and mix, mix, mix!

Add 2 beautiful eggs to the mix.

A little splash of vanilla.

Time for the dry ingredients!

I took a moment to capture the flour on the beater. I’m a nerd.

Add your chips.

Give a little taste then press into your muffin top pan! Do you have a muffin top pan yet?! You need one! In all seriousness, they really make awesome cookies.

Oh how fabulous are these Raspberry M&M’s? They really are delicious.

Press the M&M’s into your cookies.

I love how nice and round the cookies turn out. They are perfect for packaging up too!

Serve with milk 🙂

Enjoy!

    I was wondering if any company is making mini-muffin top pans. I think that would be a great way to make them for an office party or large get-together with families or at church dinners. I hope some one will take the hint and make them. I’ll buy a couple for sure!!

  2. Julie @ Table for Two

    these look fabulous! i love that you made raspberry butter!! so creative 🙂 i don’t have a muffin top pan — ahhh i know! i totally need one!!

  3. christina @ ovenadventures

    I love the idea of using raspberry butter. I am totally going to try that!!

  4. Julia

    I just added muffin top pans and raspberry M&M’s to my target list. I could eat about 8 of these, right now.

  5. Kelsey

    Because of your amazing blog and cookie recipes, I asked for (and received!!) my very own whoopie pie/muffin top pan for my birthday last week!! I can’t wait to start making your delicious recipes 🙂

  6. Heather @ Fit Mama Real Food

    What a yummy idea adding the raspberry purée in! A special little touch 🙂

  7. Anna

    Saw these at the shop the other day and though ewww… but then again I was only thinking about having the whole bag to myself 🙂 But for baking YES

  8. Erin @ Dinners, Dishes, and Desserts

    Amazing! And they have real fruit in them, so they are healthy, right?!

  9. Kim Bee

    These are absolutely gorgeous cookies. I must bookmark these and try them out. I do tend to be scared of sieves for some reason. I never have any luck getting things to strain properly. But for you I will give it a whirl again.

  10. Trinity

    i wish raspberries were in season right now! and where in the world did you find the raspberry m&m’s? if i can track those down i am so making this recipe!!!!!

  11. Larissa

    Ok, I bought a whoopie pie pan last week (Bed, Bath & Beyond didn’t have a muffin top pan in stock and I had a coupon)…looks about the same. It should work, right? I can’t wait to make some cookies in it! These sound so yummy.

    1. Tiffany

      I would think they would be pretty close to the same. I have been using a whoopie pie pan to make all my cookies in lately. My kids love the “deep dish” size and the crisp sides, gooey centers I get with the pan.

  12. tanya

    I can’t believe M & M’s have a raspberry flavor! I love the idea of making a raspberry butter. I bet that really enhances the flavor. Great recipe.

  13. Captain Micah

    I would probably accidentally use all the raspberry butter on some homemade bread and have nothing to show for myself. Except a smile. Those pans seem to be everywhere right now! Yummy!

  14. bonnie

    Sure do love the print option and I believe I am going to go and buy a Kitchen Aid.
    I am a older woman and should have had one of those years ago. 🙂

  15. Averie @ Averie Cooks

    Jenny they look awesome, as usual. I know you love your muffin top pan and I have one (you were the person who gave me the nudge to buy it, okay I bought two) and this reminds me to dust it off!

  16. Tara @ Chip Chip Hooray

    So cool! What a great idea to flavor the butter…these cookies sound (and must have smelled!) scrumptious.

  17. Lori @ RecipeGirl

    I need some raspberry puree in my life! RecipeBoy is obsessed w/ raspberries- gotta show him these!

  18. Stephanie

    Perfect timing! I’ve been holding onto a bag of these M&M’s for months (Oops, should I have made that confession?), and I expect to receive a muffin top pan for my birthday next week. These cookies are going straight to the top of my must-bake list!

  19. Anna

    I’m not even kidding when I say this…my hubby just asked me last night if you had a recipe yet for these M&M’s that he picked up for me and I said no. And here you have one today!! I can not wait to make these!!!!

  20. Cookbook Queen

    Love this idea…never thought of using flavored butter in cookies!! Can’t wait to try it myself 🙂

  21. shelly (cookies and cups)

    I need to get some of those M&Ms. I’m scared I would eat the whole bag!

  22. Natalie @ Cooking for My Kids

    What beautiful cookies! And, given that I have some raspberry lovers in the house, I know that these cookies will be a huge hit!

  23. Kathryn

    I love the idea of using some of that raspberry puree in with the butter, it sounds so good!

  24. Blog is the New Black

    Wow, great idea! Now, I’m curious… why raspberry “scented”? I read through the whole post but do they not taste like rasp?

    1. Jenny

      Hi Liz, the smell that came from the oven was so beautiful I had to call them raspberry scented, however you do get a hint of raspberry with each bite too 🙂
