In reply to Chloe. Hi Chloe! We haven’t tested that before, so I can't say for sure. The cookie will most likely be very different if you swap a sticky candy like Skittles for a chocolate candy like M&Ms, but feel free to experiment and let us know how it goes! :)

Can I use skittles instead of M&M’s?

Obsessed with these 😍 Had some leftover Valentine’s M&Ms to use up so I whipped these up. My first time baking an HTH recipe! Can’t wait to dive into more.

In reply to Kate. Hi Kate! The weight of the flour listed is correct, and should yield perfectly chewy cookies! What type of flour did you use? Some brands of all-purpose flour contain higher percentages of protein compared to others, so if your flour is a particularly low percentage of protein, this could yield cakey cookies. Tessa prefers to use Gold Medal bleached all-purpose flour, and King Arthur is another great choice and it actually contains a slightly higher percentage of protein, compared to most AP flours, so I'd recommend giving either of those a try. I also recommend chilling this dough for 24-72 hours before baking, if possible, for the best flavor and texture. I hope something here helps! Happy baking :)

I made this and measured out the flour by weight, but the cookies turned out cakey. I was so disappointed. I looked up the weight of flour and several websites state 3 cups should be 360 g, not 380 g. I wonder if this was a typo?

Hi Tessa, do you think it’s possible to use peanut M&M’s? Hubs is obsessed with peanut M&M’s.

I forgot to add the vanilla and I subbed the chocolate chips for chopped chocolate. They ended up so good that we ate them hot because we couldn’t wait for the to cool down and set. I will definitely repeat!
