easter bunny oatmeal cookie bars
Bring all the nibbly bunnies to the yard with these colorful springtime treats.
Ingredients
- 12 tbsp butter, softened
- 1 1/4 cups dark brown sugar
- 2 eggs, at room temperature
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 2 1/2 cups old fashioned oats
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 cup Easter pastel M&Ms
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9 x 13 inch cake pan with parchment.
- In a large bowl, cream the butter and brown sugar until fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, until incorporated, then beat in the vanilla. Mix in the flour, oats, baking soda, and salt until just combined. Fold in the white chocolate chips and 3/4 cup of M&Ms with a spatula. Do not overmix.
- Spread and pat the dough evenly into the cake pan. Bake for 22-25 minutes until the edges are set and the centers are still a little gooey. Let cool 15 minutes in the pan, then slice and enjoy!
