Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda

- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup red and blue M&M candies

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the red and blue M&M candies and white chocolate chips.
- Spread the cookie dough evenly into the prepared baking dish.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Allow to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, cut into bars and serve.
Notes
- For a festive touch, try adding a sprinkle of sea salt on top before baking.
- You can substitute the M&M candies with chocolate chips or your favorite nuts for a different flavor profile.
