@Chi-town girl   These are amazing!   I just ate one    they puff up while baking and the cookie base very much tastes like shortcake,  the M&M's give it the strawberry touch.   My M&M's were strawberry milkshake  [ it was all I could find]   so for some reason they put red, pink & green?    I didn't want to put in the green.   

I wish I made a double batch.  My husband and son's will finish these right up later.

Something for Valentine's Day or anytime! I plan to pick up the limited edition Shortcake flavored M&Ms candies at Target this week

Ingredients

• 1 cup butter room temperature
• 1 cup powdered sugar 
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 eggs 
• 2-1/4 cups all purpose flour 
• 1-3.4 oz french vanilla instant pudding mix 
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• ½ package white chocolate morsels
• 1 package Strawberry Shortcake flavored M&Ms candies 

Instructions

• In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla until light and fluffy.
• Add eggs gently, one at a time, whisking until combined.
• If your electric mixer has a paddle attachment, add it and turn the mixer on low and slowly add the flour, pudding mix and baking soda. (If not, use your regular mixer attachment on low and add ingredients slowly.) Mix until combined.
• Add white chocolate morsels and hand-stir until well combined.
• Refrigerate dough for 30 minutes.
• Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Use a medium sized cookie scoop to scoop out the dough into balls, spacing them about 2 inches apart on the baking sheet.
• Press the M&Ms candies randomly on top of the cookie dough balls, 5-6 M&Ms each cookie.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes, until golden brown on the edges.
• Cool for 1 minute on the baking sheet then transfer to a wire rack to cool for 30 more minutes.

Girl, you post the BEST recipes!  I'm going to make these for the Superbowl party that I'm hosting.  Do you know if they freeze well?

@Qshopper1991 - thank you ❤️ I am not sure about freezing them, but most cookies are good with freezing

@nada54 - I ordered several items from Target for pick up tmrw including the Strawberry M&M's. I looked at the M&M website to make sure there was only one strawberry version - just one and it's the milkshake. It is odd they would include green!

@Chi-town girl   I Know!   Who the heck wants green?    Its not even Valentine.

So I just had to use 2 bags and put the green aside.
