M&M And Oreo Cookie Bars

I love to make bar recipes, these are a chocolate lovers dream, crunchy with loads of M&M's, and Oreo's then a mist and buttery dough. Perfect for a quick dessert, ready in about 1/2 hour. So delicious everyone will love!!!!

INGREDIENTS:

1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick), melted
1 large egg
1 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
18 Oreo Cookies, coarsely chopped (I used Oreo Birthday Cookies) another type of Oreo cookie may substituted
about 1/2 -1 cup M&M's (I used plain, use your favorite flavor or other chopped candy)

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 350F. Line an 8-by-8-inch baking pan with aluminum foil, spray with cooking spray; set aside.
2. In a large, microwave-safe bowl melt the butter, about 1 minute on high power. Make sure butter is cooled before adding egg, otherwise it will scramble.
3. Add the egg, brown sugar, vanilla, and whisk until smooth.
4. Add the flour and stir until just combined, don't overmix.
5. Stir in the Oreos.
6. Turn batter out into prepared pan, smoothing the top lightly with a spatula.
7. Evenly sprinkle the M&Ms over the top, lightly pressing them down with your finger or a spatula.
8. Bake for about 20 to 22 minutes, or until done based on add-ins used. Top should be set and edges slightly firm. A toothpick inserted in the center (if you can find a bare patch to test) should come out clean, or with a few moist crumbs, but no batter. Allow bars to cool in pan for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving. Bars will keep airtight at room temperature for up to 1 week, or in the freezer for up to 6 months.
