This is an old recipe. One that's been made for as long as chocolate chip cookies have been baked. Because it's basically a cookie in bar form. I've made these off and on since Junior High School, but never really wrote down a recipe. I just use whatever cookie recipe I was making at the time and pressed it into a pan. Now, I need to write it down.
M & M Bars
(Blondies)
1/2 c butter
2 eggs
1 1/2 t vanilla
1 t salt
2 t baking powder
2 c flour
1 1/2 cups chocolate chips and M&M's or mixture of whatever you want
Beat the butter, eggs and vanilla. Add the salt, baking powder and flour. Stir in the chocolate chips or M&M's. Press into a greased 9X13" pan and bake at 350 for about 25 minutes until the edges are golden brown but not dark. If you over bake them they will be crunchy instead of nice and chewy. Let cool completely before cutting.
