Ingredients

  • 15.25 oz box yellow cake mix
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup M&Ms (red and green)

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F so it’s ready when your dough is mixed.
  • Lightly grease an 11x7-inch brownie pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, and oil. Stir until everything is well blended and a soft dough comes together.
  • Fold in the red and green M&Ms, making sure they’re evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  • Transfer the mixture to your prepared pan. Spread it out evenly, pressing it gently into the corners and edges.
  • Bake for 25-28 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
  • Remove from the oven and let the cookie bars cool completely in the pan.
  • Once cooled, slice into squares or rectangles.
  • Serve and enjoy!
