Oatmeal M&M Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Slash a strip a parchment paper to suit the bottom of a 9×13 pan, but cling over 2 of the edges.  Spray pan with non-stick spray and then spot parchment in, urgent paper to spray to help it stick. (Alternately you could line with foil and lightly spray with cooking spray.)  Established apart.

Position oats in your blender and pulse just a pair moments to scarcely crack up oats.  You do not want to develop oat flour! They really should still glimpse like oats, just broken up a minor into scaled-down parts. Established these apart.

Mix flour, baking soda, and salt in a bowl and frivolously whisk to incorporate.  Set aside.

In a mixing bowl or stand mixer, melted butter, brown sugar, and white sugar.  Add eggs, just one at a time, stirring involving every addition, and vanilla.  Include flour mixture in a few additions till incorporated.

Stir in oats and chocolate chips until finally just merged.  *I like to just sprinkle my M&M’s on the top rated of the dough, but if you have a huge bag, truly feel totally free to toss a modest handful into the dough, or substitute M&M’s for a part of your chocolate chips.

Push dough into prepared pan and press flat.  Sprinkle a handful of M&M’s on best and incorporate sprinkles if you desire.

Bake for about 25-30 minutes. Take away from oven when edges are golden brown and heart appears established, but however delicate. The heart should jiggle a bit when you shift the pan.  They will be really doughy in the center!  Except you are serving somewhat heat around ice cream, amazing completely to place temperature.  Notice: It’s entirely ordinary for the middle to sink down reduce than the edges, as soon as cooled! I imagine these are most effective when they’ve cooled for several hrs and I like to set them in the fridge to chill right before cutting, even.  They are great to make forward!
