Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Cream butter, oil, and sugars. Add eggs and beat until fluffy.

Fold in sprinkles. Use a cookie scoop to put on a greased cookie tray. Top with 4-5 M&Ms.
Bake for 7-8 minutes.
STORE. Place in an air-tight container and leave on the counter for 3-4 days. Place a piece of white bread into the container to keep the cookies soft.
FREEZE. Baked homemade Christmas Cookies can also be stored in the freezer for 3-4 months.
FREEZE the dough. Scoop the dough into balls and place them onto a baking sheet, then place in the freezer. Once the dough is solid, transfer the dough to a freezer Ziploc. These will last in your freezer for 3-4 months.
