M&M Chocolate Chip Bars

Print Recipe

These M&M Chocolate Chip Bars are a joyful twist on a classic cookie bar, featuring a buttery, tender crumb studded with colorful M&Ms and melty chocolate chips.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 and 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 and 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 1 cup packed light or dark brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 and 1/4 cups mini or regular-size M&Ms
  • 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C) and position the rack in the center. Line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.
  3. Mix the melted and cooled butter with the brown sugar and granulated sugar until smooth in a large bowl.
  4. Add the eggs and vanilla to the butter-sugar mixture and mix until incorporated.
  5. Combine the wet and dry ingredients, stirring until just mixed.
  6. Fold in the M&Ms and chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  7. Spread the dough in the prepared pan and smooth it out.
  8. Bake for 26 to 30 minutes or until the top is lightly browned and a toothpick comes out mostly clean.
  9. Cool in the pan for at least one hour, then lift out and cut into squares.

Notes

If you like extra melty pockets of chocolate, warm the pan slightly before serving.
