I made these again today, and I figured out that if you put the extra M&M's on top right after they come out of the oven, the shells of the candies on the top don't break or crack. Also, if you roll them into balls when you put them on the cookie sheets, they look bakery-perfect. I used sil-pat sheets instead of parchment paper, and it's now a five-star recipe, in my opinion! I brought them to a school event, and they were the first thing that was all gone!
