Equipment

  • 9" x 13" baking dish

Ingredients
 

  • 1 box yellow cake mix
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • ½ cup oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • cup chocolate chips
  • ½ cup M&Ms optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350℉. Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the cake mix, lightly beaten eggs, oil and vanilla extract. The batter will be very sticky.
  • Mix in the chocolate chips.
  • Transfer the batter to the lined baking dish. Using a spatula or your fingers, spread the batter evenly in the baking dish. Place M&Ms or more chocolate chips on top of the cookie dough and press down a bit.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the top is golden brown. Let the cookie bars cool down for a couple of minutes and transfer them to a wire rack. Slice them into bars.

Notes

  • You can substitute more chocolate chips instead of M&Ms. Use any kind of chocolate chips or candy you prefer.
  • The batter will be hard and sticky. You can thin it down with a tablespoon of milk.
  • Use a rubber spatula or wet your fingers to spread the evenly on the baking dish.
  • Once cooled, store the cooke mix bars in an airtight container for 4-5 days. Note that they will harden a bit as they sit. You can also store them in the fridge.
  • They'll keep in the freezer up to 3 months.
