Directions:
  1. Line an 8in (20cm) square baking pan with parchment paper. Make sure to leave a 2-inch overhang for easy lifting.
  2. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
  3. In a large bowl, place the melted butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla, and eggs. Beat on medium speed for about 2 minutes. You can use a wire whisk if you don’t want to use an electric mixer.
  4. Sift the flour, salt, and baking soda over the mixture. Stir gently with a spatula until just combined. It will form a thick batter.
  5. Stir in the chocolate chips and 1/2 cup of M&M’s.
  6. Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared pan and place the remaining M&M’s (1/4 cup) on top.
  7. Bake for 30 – 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Let it cool to room temperature and cut into squares.
  9. Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
