I’m back with another fun and super easy treat for Easter and Spring! These brookie-o’s with m&m’s are packed with layers of fudgy brownies, Oreos, chocolate chip cookies, and m&ms. There is goodness in every single bite.
Can you make your own brownie batter? Absolutely.
Can you make your own chocolate chip cookie dough? Absolutely.
But for those times when you are short on time and want to make a fun dessert or snack, I found this cookie brownie bars mix. Of course, I had to take it a step further and make it a little more eggstra for you by adding Oreos and m&ms.
What is the easiest way to soften butter?
I leave mine out of the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. If you are short on time, you can put it in the microwave (with the paper wrapping) for 15-20 seconds and smush it a bit with your hands. It’s usually perfectly softened that way.
What type of m&ms did you use?
I bought the Easter m&m’s. I love the pretty pastel colors. They are perfect for these brookie-o’s! You can always use regular m&m’s if you can’t find these. They will taste the same!
Where did you find this cookie brownie bars mix?
I found this cookie brownie bars mix at Target. You can also check your local grocery store in the baking aisle, next to the cake and cookie mixes.
How many brookie-o’s does this recipe make?
That depends on how you slice them. I typically cut them into 9 pieces, but if you want to serve smaller pieces, you can cut them as you wish. While you can use just a regular knife, I use a large pastry dough cutter. The large size is the perfect size to cut your brownies or brookie-o’s in one shot and it easily slices through. I use it all the time. If you make bread, it can also be used for dough.
Now that I’ve hopefully answered all of your questions about these brookie-o’s with m&ms let’s talk about the ingredients and the recipe!
I hope that you will try our version of brookie-o’s with m&ms this Easter or Spring. You can serve it as is or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. Either way, they are a delicious treat!
