Delicious M&M cookie bars that blend the nostalgic flavor of classic cookies with crunchy, colorful M&Ms.

  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 12 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup M&Ms

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, and include vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt together, then gradually mix it into the wet ingredients.
  5. Gently fold in the M&Ms and any additional ingredients if desired.
  6. Spread the dough evenly in the prepared pan.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the edges are golden and the center has set.
  8. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Cut into squares or rectangles to serve.

Notes

For a chewy texture, slightly underbake the bars and allow them to cool completely before slicing.
