Instructions: This variation works for a Jewish celebration where you want to give the cookies a "Jewish" flair with the blue color.

Chips Makes 6 dozen 2" cookies

* Note: I separated out all the blue, orange and brown M&Ms and used those.

This would be great fun for small children! (Both the M&M Baking Bits and Ghirardelli chips are OU-D.)

Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Cream margarine with sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla. Stir flour with baking soda, salt and cinnamon; add to cream mixture, mixing well. Stir in oats. Fold in chocolate chips and M&Ms.

Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 8-9 minutes for a chewy cookie, 10-12 minutes for a crisp cookie. Cool 1 minute on cookie sheet, then transfer to wire cooling racks. Store in tightly covered container or freeze.

Makes about 6 dozen 2-inch cookies.
