Easy to make soft & chewy sugar cookies with M&M’s in the shape of the Easter bunny pressed in!

Hop Into Easter with These Bunny M&M Cookies!

I used my recipe for Soft & Chewy M&M Easter Cookies and just changed how I put the M&M’s in the tops of the cookies to make them look like little Easter bunnies. I just love these!

Also, my cookies don’t come out of the oven perfectly round. I nudge the sides of the cookies into a better shaped circle immediately after removing them from the oven. You should give it a try sometime! I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised how easy it is and how much better you feel about the look of your cookies.

If you like cute Easter treats, then I think you’ll love Mini Bird Nest Donuts , Easter Egg Bird Nest Cookie Cups , Peeps Bunny Sugar Cookies , and Easter Bunny Cinnamon Rolls , too!

Ingredients You’ll Need

1 cup Butter

How to Make Easter Bunny M&M Cookies

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup butter, 3/4 cup sugar, 3/4 cup brown sugar, and 1 tsp vanilla.

Add 2 eggs and beat well.

In a separate bowl, combine 3 cups flour with 1/2 tsp baking soda and 1/2 tsp baking powder. Pour into wet mixture and mix until dough forms.

Fold in 1 cup M&M’s.

Place heaping one inch scoops of dough on the prepared cookie sheet.

Bake for 10 minutes.

Press remaining M&M’s into the top of the baked cookies into the shape of Easter bunnies immediately after removing from the oven.

Can I use regular M&M’s instead?

Yes! If pastel colored M&M’s aren’t available, regular M&M’s work just the same, though the Easter theme will be less obvious.

Can I freeze Easter Bunny M&M Cookies?

Yes! Freeze baked cookies in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Be sure to place them in the container very carefully so the M&M’s keep their bunny shape. Thaw at room temperature before serving.
