Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9X13-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs and sugars. Mix well. Add the salt, vanilla, peanut butter and butter. Mix until creamy and well combined. Stir in the chocolate chips, baking soda and oatmeal. Mix well.
Spread the batter into the prepared pan and press lightly into an even layer. Sprinkle the M&M's evenly across the top and gently press them into the dough.
Bake for 20-25 minutes until the edges are golden and set. Let the bars cool completely in the pan. For a cleaner cut, refrigerate the bars before slicing and serving.

Notes

M&M's: it's normal for some of the M&M's to crack while baking. If you want to avoid that, you can add them to the top after you take the bars out of the oven but they won't sink into the top quite as well.
