Triple Chocolate Chunk MnM Cookies

Nothing like overdoing it, right?
Must... overdo.... everything.
Wanted to get 'rid' of the double chocolate cookie mixes in my pantry, but I also wanted to do something 'Red, White, & Blue' for the 4th. Eh- double it up :)

 Make the 2 separate cookie doughs.
I made a double batch of both and ended up with 6 dozen cookies.
 *Chocolate Chunk cookies- Follow package directions, put in a bowl to the side for later.

 For the BEST Chocolate Chip Cookies I have EVER made- (The top portion of these cookies):

You'll need the following:

 2 1/4 C Flour
1/2 tsp soda
1/2 tsp powder
1/3 C (3/4 stick) Real Butter
3/4 stick/tray shortening
1/2 C White Sugar
1 C packed Brown Sugar
1 tsp salt
2 Eggs
1 tbsp Vanilla
1 cup mini chocolate chips
2 cups M n M candies

 Mix the butter, shortening, sugars, eggs, & vanilla well. ...add the salt, soda, powder and flour. Beat so its all fluffy. Gently mix in the chocolate chips and MnM's.

Preheat the oven to 350 Degrees.

With a small scoop, place chocolate batter on the sheet.

With a medium scoop, place light batter on top of chocolate batter. Don't press down or shape.

Bake exactly 13 mins on middle rack and pull out of oven (even though they don't look done).

Let cool on sheet for 5 mins. Transfer to cooling rack.

 Sure wish I could find mini MnM's in the Bulk section!!!!
