Last night I had a dream about M&M cookie bars so I had to make them. They are so delicious, gooey, and the best combination of a brownie and an M&M cookie.

Don’t forget to follow me on Instagram, Pinterest, TikTok, and YouTube🙂

This recipe is perfect for movie nights, a party, or to have stocked in the freezer for any time you need a sweet treat!

This recipe was inspired by my recipe for gluten-free Lofthouse cookies and pairs great with a glass of milk.

Bake for about 30 minutes. You will know the bars are fully cooked when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cookie bars cool completely before removing them from the pan.
