YUM: Robbi's M&M Cookies

I made these M&M Cookies awhile ago, and they were super good. Not to thick and not to thin. Props to Robbi and her recipe. (Photos are compliments of my camera phone, so the quality isn't exactly crisp.)

1. In a large bowl, mix sugar, eggs, shortening, and vanilla thoroughly. Add flour, salt, and baking soda to creamed mixture. Blend well. Add 3/4 cup of M&M candies.
2. Drop dough by teaspoonful onto cookie sheet. Slightly push a few candies on top of each dough ball with remaining candies.
3. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 9 to 11 minutes, to your liking.
