My 283rd recipe, “M&M’s® Coffee Nut Mocha Cookies”, an easy and indulgent cookie. Rich with coffee and chocolate flavors. Perfectly soft and chewy. Makes a wonderful anytime snack or a quick breakfast. These mocha cookies have enough caffeine in them to charge you up for the mornings.

It just takes a moment to fall in love. That is what happened when I baked the Banana choco chip cookies sometime back. I loved it so much that, I am now addicted towards baking chewy homemade cookies. It is not that I did not taste chewy cookies earlier. I always loved the chewy kind of choco chip cookies. It is just that I was used to having it at stores until then. But after experiencing how delicious the homemade one was, I started looking for more and more variations of soft and chewy cookies to try out at home.

Chocolate and coffee are basically two flavors which I cannot absolutely live without. If any dish has one of those flavors, I am sure I would go crazy for it, irrespective of whether it is a hot dish or even an ice cream. Hence it is only very obvious that I would rate a mocha cookie made by combining chocolate and coffee flavors very high on my favorites list. After taking a break from blogging for a couple of weeks, it is now kind of slow moving to get back into the rhythm. A mid week Mocha cookie sounded like the perfect boost for myself. Hence without any second thoughts I decided to go ahead and make some today.

While these mocha cookies can be addictive on their own, a little bit of added flavor and texture wouldn’t do it any harm. M&M’s® would just be the perfect addition to any cookies. But these mocha cookies deserved a special one of those M&M’s®.

When I had visited my local Walmart a few days back, I stumbled across three new M&M’s® Peanut varieties: M&M’s® Chili Nut, M&M’s® Honey Nut, M&M’s® Coffee Nut. I quickly grabbed all 3 of them to give a try. If you had noticed, there were in-store demos run across Walmart supermarket nationwide where M&M’s® fans got a chance to try all three of those lovely flavors.

Yes Kriti, Convection mode can be used. However it would cook faster than a conventional oven. So you can try baking with a slightly reduced temperature and a shorter baking time.

These cookies look delicious, but I'd opt to do them with regular M&Ms - or maybe the peanut butter ones. I don't like chocolate covered nuts. It's a texture thing, but I think I'll be okay. Great photos!

I was *just* thinking I should make some coffee-flavored cookies, but you made them even better by putting M&Ms in them!! M&Ms are one of my favorite cookie add ins, so these look perfect. The new flavors all look really interesting, but the coffee nut would definitely get my vote. ;)
