Directions: |
Directions:Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with foil and grease with cooking spray (making it easier to get bars out of pan). If leaving in pan, then grease it. Set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the butter and brown sugar until crumbly; mixing well. Add eggs and vanilla; beating until smooth.
Mix in salt and baking powder. Then add flour and beat until just combined. Stir in only 1¼ cups of M&Ms.
Spread dough in the prepared pan. The mixture will be sticky, so spraying your hands with cooking spray or wetting with just a little water can help spread the dough evenly. Top mixture with remaining M&Ms and slightly press into the dough.
Bake for 22-25 minutes or until it starts to turn golden. Be sure to rotate pan ½ turn at halfway point of baking. Don’t over bake; as they will continue baking as they cool.
Remove from oven and place on wire rack to cool completely. Cut into squares. Store in airtight container.
Variations: You can use substitute any flavored candy, chips or different colored M&Ms to make the dessert seasonal or to your taste. |
