CHRISTMAS M&M COOKIE BARS

INGREDIENTS

1 cup unsalted butter (at room temperature)

1 cup light brown sugar

3/4 cup granulated sugar

2 large eggs

2 teaspoons vanilla

3 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

1 cup chocolate chips (plus more for tops if desired)

1 cup M&M’s (plus more for tops if desired)

INSTRUCTIONS




Preheat the oven to 325°F. For thick bars, line a 9×13″ pan with foil. For thinner bars, line a 15×10″ pan. Leave an over hang for easy removal. Then spray with non-stick spray.

In a large bowl using a mixer, cream together the butter and sugars for 1 minute. Add the eggs and vanilla and mix until combined.

Add the flour, baking soda and salt and stir mixture just until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips and M&M’s (saving about 1/4 cup for the top).

Scoop cookie dough into the pan. Then place extra M&M’s and chocolate chips on the top.

Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is barely golden brown. Allow to cool completely, then remove and slice.

Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
