Ingredients
For the Cookie:
- ¾ cup butter flavored Crisco
- 2 Tbsp milk
- 1 Tbsp vanilla extract
- 1 ¼ cup brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 ¾ cup all purpose flour
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- ¾ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch ground nutmeg
- 1 bag (12oz) milk chocolate morsels
- 1 cup mini m&m's
For the Frosting:
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 ¾ cup powdered sugar
- 3 Tbsp water
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 Tbsp meringue powder
Instructions
- For the cookie, preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lay a large piece of parchment paper over a 15 inch round cookie sheet (I used stoneware). Set aside.
- In mixer, beat Crisco with milk, vanilla and brown sugar until creamy. Add egg. Slowly mix in flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon and nutmeg. Fold in chocolate chips and m&m's. Press cookie dough onto baking sheet, leaving at least 1 ½ inches from edge of pan. Bake for 20-24 minutes. Remove and allow to set, cooling completely before frosting.
- For the frosting, beat butter with powdered sugar, water, vanilla and meringue powder for 3-5 minutes until fluffy. Using gel food coloring, divide frosting into small bowls and tint to desired color. Pipe onto cookie! ENJOY!
Notes
- Create with or without the frosting on top!
