Then I added some quick oats, baking powder and salt to the bowl.

Then I added some red and green M&Ms to the bowl.

I stirred the M&Ms into the cookie dough.

Then I scooped approximately one inch balls of cookie dough onto a nonstick cookie sheet, making sure to leave at least an inch between the balls.

I baked the cookies until they were just starting to brown around the edges.

Then I removed the cookies from the oven and used a spatula to transfer them from the hot pan to some parchment paper on the counter to cool off.
