A Forgotten 2013 Peanut Butter Cookie Recipe Returns With a Festive Twist

A beloved crumbl cookie recipe from 2013 has made a comeback—just in time for the holidays. The Egg Free Peanut Butter M&M cookies, once overlooked among other treats, are now being shared again with a festive twist. Their melt-in-the-mouth texture and slight crunch make them ideal for gifting or enjoying with loved ones.

The recipe first appeared online on 30 August 2013 after the author baked a large batch for their eldest son's wife. Back then, the cookies featured chocolate chips instead of M&M's. Over the years, they became a go-to recipe for various occasions, including a neighbour's child's class party.

Unlike traditional peanut butter cookies, this version skips the egg, giving them a firmer, crunchier bite. Recently, the author updated the recipe by swapping chocolate chips for mini M&M's and increasing the size of each cookie. The change was made for a special event—their husband's 70th birthday celebration.

Now, the refreshed recipe is being shared with the Sunday Funday group, ensuring more people can enjoy these festive, egg-free treats.

The updated cookies keep the same simple recipe but now include colourful M&M's for a holiday-ready look. Their versatility makes them perfect for celebrations, sharing, or gifting this season. The author's long-standing tradition of baking them continues, now with a sweeter, more festive touch.
