M&M Christmas Dessert Cookie Bars are a delightful and festive treat that combines the flavors of cookies and candies. Here's a recipe to make these delicious bars:
Ingredients:
1 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup red and green M&M's (plus extra for topping)
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Mix until well combined.
3. Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mixture. Mix until smooth and creamy.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
5. Gently fold in the M&M's and white chocolate chips, reserving a handful of M&M's for topping.
6. Spread the cookie dough evenly into the greased baking dish. Press the reserved M&M's onto the top of the dough.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the edges turn golden brown. The center may still be slightly soft, but it will firm up as it cools.
8. Remove the baking dish from the oven and allow the cookie bars to cool completely before cutting into squares.
These M&M Christmas Dessert Cookie Bars are a wonderful addition to holiday gatherings, cookie exchanges, or as a sweet treat to enjoy with family and friends. The colorful M&M's and white chocolate chips add a festive touch to these delicious bars. Enjoy!
