I am a fan of all things cookies and brownies, so it makes perfect sense to mix the two together. You know what else I love? M&M’s! I decided to use the new MEGA M&M’s for this recipe to add some pretty pops of color, hence making them the superheroes of this dessert bar! They turned out super ooey gooey and perfect, which is why I named them Ooey Gooey Cookie Brownies!
Funny story, when I set out to make the recipe I realized halfway into mixing everything that I didn’t have eggs in my fridge. So instead of calling it a loss I decided that having them be a little more on the fudge-y side wouldn’t hurt. So, here is how I made them…
What you will need:
For the brownies:
- 1 cup sugar (white, brown or a combo of the two)
- 1/2 cup oil or melted butter
- 1 cup flour
- 2 tablespoons of water
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
For the Cookies:
- 1/2 stick of butter or margarine
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon of water
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup milk chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup of M&M’s
Directions:
{one} Preheat oven to 325ºF.
{two} Mix all the ingredients for the brownies until combined. Spread it into the bottom of an 8×8 pan.
{three} Place a layer of M&M’s down and make any design you like.
{four} Mix all the ingredients for the cookies until combined. Dollop balls of cookie dough down over what is already in the pan.
{five} Top off all of the mounds of cookie dough with more M&M’s!
{six} Bake for 50 minutes and then let cool.
I am in love with the way they turned out, despite adversity. My son even asked me how I got them so gooey! True story!
I used blue and red MMs because of the recent release of Captain America: The Winter Soldier! It just came out and it always makes me feel so patriotic! At heroeseatmms.com you can take fun quizzes to see which super hero or M&M you are AND you can download a coupon for $5 off Captain America! WOOO!
I picked up my M&Ms at Walmart and it turns out that they have a 2 for $5 coupon right now! SCORE!
So tell me a few things in the comments below: What is your favorite, cookies or brownies? What is your favorite super hero?
