These colorful, chocolatey brownie bars are a great way to celebrate the holidays!
Prep time: 15 min.
Baking time: 45-50 min.
Difficulty: Easy
What you'll need:
- 1 bag M&M’S® Brand Milk Chocolate Candies for the Holidays
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 8-oz. box cream cheese
- 1 egg(s)
- 1/8 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 package brownie mix (choose directions for the cake-style brownies)
What to do:
- In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese with the sugar. Add the egg, heavy cream and vanilla extract. Set aside.
- Prepare the brownie mix according to the package directions. Spoon 2/3 of the brownie batter into a parchment-lined 9 x 13-inch baking pan. Cover the batter with 1-1/2 cups of M&M’S® Brand Milk Chocolate Candies for the Holidays.
- Spoon the reserved cream cheese mixture over the brownie batter. Now scrape the remaining brownie batter over the cream cheese mixture. Swirl the tip of a knife through the batter to make a marbled effect. Press the remaining 1/2 cup of M&M’S® Brand Milk Chocolate Candies for the Holidays into the batter.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes in a preheated 350 degree oven until slightly moist in the center. Cool completely before cutting into 2-inch squares.
