This is one of my favorite recipes to make. It's so simple! Couldn't find the baking bits but regular M&Ms work just fine. I love making them for the holidays and being able to use the holidays M&Ms

I can't believe how many times I have made these. The problem is trying to find the baking bits on grocer's shelfs.
