M&M Brownie Recipe
Description
This M&M Brownie Recipe starts by blending melted butter, vegetable oil, and sugars, which helps create a tender and moist crumb. Eggs and vanilla extract are whisked in to add richness and bind the batter. Dry ingredients including all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder are sifted and folded carefully to preserve structure without overmixing.
Chocolate chips and both regular and mini M&Ms are folded into the batter to distribute sweet bursts of candy and chocolate uniformly. The batter is poured into a parchment-lined 9x13 inch pan and topped with the remaining M&Ms for an attractive finish. Baking at 350°F for 25-30 minutes cooks the brownies until just set in the center, creating a fudgy texture with chewy edges.
Once cooled, the brownies are easier to cut and serve. Using a plastic knife is suggested to slice through the candies and soft crumb without sticking. These brownies provide a colorful, chocolatey treat with the fun texture and taste of M&Ms throughout the dessert.
