CARAMEL M&M COOKIES RECIPES

Steps:

• Place puff corn in a large roaster pan.
• In 2 quart sauce pan bring the butter, sugar & corn syrup to bring to boil, then cook for 2 minutes.
• Add the baking soda- this will cause the caramel mixture to foam up.
• Stir well and remove from heat.
• Pour over puff corn in roaster and bake in 250* oven for 45 minutes, stirring every 10-15 minutes.
• Remove from oven, spread out onto wax paper to cool.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350. (I use the convection setting which takes off about 10 minutes baking time). Spray a 9x13-glass(must be glass) baking pan with cooking spray.
• Add the first 5 ingredients to the mixer in the order given. Beat exactly 8 minutes at medium speed. Add butter and vanilla extract.
• Pour the batter into an oiled pan. Sprinkle the streusel mix over top. Take a knife (I use a chopstick…it works great) and swirl the streusel throughout making sure to go only about 1" deep into the batter by making "S" swirls.
• Then drizzle the caramel topping over this.
• Bake at 350 degrees on the middle rack for 40–45 minutes, or until the toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. After removing from oven, let sit on a wire rack for a few minutes.
• For the glaze, warm the milk/cream. Whip cream cheese, adding milk/cream, butter/butter extract, and powdered sugar, mixing well to blend. Add vanilla and stir until smooth and creamy.
• While the cake is still quite warm, drizzle with glaze. Then cool completely on a rack.
