How people cook with it

- Snacking straight from the bag

- Mixing into trail mix
Mm's are primarily enjoyed as a ready-to-eat snack. Their bright colors and sweet taste make them a fun addition to desserts. They can be sprinkled over cakes, cookies, or cupcakes for a decorative touch and a burst of chocolate flavor. They also melt well when baked into cookies, creating pockets of gooey chocolate. For a simple treat, they can be stirred into ice cream or yogurt. They are also a popular choice for candy buffets or party favors.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to solid chocolate bars, Mm's offer a distinct textural contrast with their crunchy candy shell. The individual pieces are also convenient for portion control and sharing. The variety of colors adds a playful element not found in many other chocolate confections.

How to keep the rest
To maintain their freshness and prevent the chocolate from melting or the candy shell from softening, store Mm's in a cool, dry place. Keep the bag or container tightly sealed after opening. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight or high temperatures, which can affect their texture and taste.
