👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Prepare the pan

• Line a 9×13 inch baking dish with parchment paper.
• Lightly grease the edges if you want extra easy removal.

2. Mix wet ingredients

In a large bowl:

• Whisk melted butter and both sugars until smooth.
• Add the eggs and vanilla and mix until creamy.

3. Add dry ingredients

• Add flour, baking soda, and salt.
• Mix just until combined (don’t overmix).

4. Add the goodies

Fold in:

• Half of the M&Ms
• Half of the chocolate chips
• Half of the white chocolate chips

(Reserve the rest for topping.)

5. Spread and top

• Spread dough evenly into the prepared pan.
• Sprinkle remaining M&Ms, chocolate chips, and white chocolate chips on top.

6. Bake

• Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 25–30 minutes.
• Edges should be golden, center slightly soft (it will firm up as it cools).

7. Cool and slice

Let cool completely, then slice into bars.
