Need to make some Christmas cookies for a holiday party or cookie exchange, but you’re simply too busy to start from scratch? I’ve got you covered! These chocolate peppermint M&M cookies start from a boxed cake mix, but NO ONE will guess you didn’t make them from scratch!

This recipe makes 24 cookies that are pretty, festive, and (in my humble opinion) SO GOOD! In fact, I’ve decided this is my favorite Christmas cookie I’ve ever made.

You start off with a box of devil’s food cake mix. Add butter, egg, mini chocolate chips, peppermint pieces, and peppermint M&Ms. Mix all ingredients thoroughly and scoop on to a parchment-lined cookie sheet with a cookie scoop.

You’ll want to press some extra pieces of peppermint and M&Ms into your scooped cookie dough to make sure all the goodies aren’t hiding inside!

Into the oven they go, where they bake for about 13 minutes. And just like that… you’ve got delicious, chocolatey, pepperminty cookies to share!
