Chewy M&M Cookie Bars


We were all feeling yucky last weekend, and something homemade and sweet always seems to do the trick of perking us up fast!
I found this awesome recipe at Fantastic Family Favorites
  • 2 1/8 cups flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 1/2 sticks butter, melted and cooled
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 2 tsps vanilla extract
  • 12oz bag M&M's
 Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Line a 9X13-inch baking pan with foil, letting the excess hang over the edges of the pan to help you get them out. Spray the foil-lined pan with nonstick cooking spray.
 Mix the flour, salt, and baking soda together in medium bowl. Whisk the melted butter and sugars in a large bowl until combined. Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla and mix well. Fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture. Stir in 1 cup of M&M's and put batter into the pan. Sprinkle some M&M's on top.
 Bake until the top of the bars are a light golden brown, 28 minutes. Cut into squares and serve.

I hope you enjoy these as much as my family did!
