Christmas Cookie Bars

  Is there anything better than a homemade chocolate chip cookie? How about these easy to bake Christmas Cookie Bars filled with chocolatey goodness and Holiday M&Ms?? I adapted this recipe from my Amish Chocolate Chip Bars, which are always a hit, so I KNOW you’re going to enjoy these just as much.

  I love whipping up homemade treats this time of year to give to those that I love. These bars are super simple to make and taste AMAZING! Plus, you can slice them into bars and package them in a Christmas cookie tin for a quick, homemade treat. You’ve GOT to give these a try and if you like this recipe then be sure to check out my Easy Christmas Bark and my list of 15 Homemade Treats to Give at Christmas. Enjoy friends!

2 cups sugar

2 tsp baking powder

1 1/2 tsp salt

4 eggs, slightly beaten

1/2 cup butter, melted and cooled

1 tsp vanilla

1.5 cups chocolate chips

1/2 cup Christmas M&Ms (plus more for sprinkling on top)

Parchment Paper

10″ x 15″   Jelly Roll pan (or similar sized pan with 1 inch sides)

Step 1: Preheat oven to 350. In medium mixing bowl, combine dry ingredients.

Step 2: Add wet ingredients and mix well.

Step 3: Add chocolate chips and M&Ms. Mix Well.

Step 4: Spread parchment paper out over pan leaving extra at each end.

Step 5: Dump dough onto parchment paper and spread out evenly across pan using a spoon or spatula. (The dough is thick, so this will take some work.)

Step 6: Sprinkle additional M&Ms on top of dough for more color.

Step 7: Cut off any excess parchment paper around the edges. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.

Step 8: Let cool, cut into bars and serve.
