Ingredients
  

  • 1 box yellow cake mix about 15 oz
  • 2 eggs large
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup Easter M&M candies
  • 1 cup chocolate chips semi-sweet

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Mix cake mix, eggs, oil, and vanilla until a thick dough forms.
  • Fold in M&Ms and chocolate chips.
  • Press dough evenly into the prepared pan.
  • Bake for 20–25 minutes until edges are set and lightly golden.
  • Cool completely before slicing into bars.

Notes

Do not overbake—slightly soft centers will firm up as the bars cool, creating a chewy texture.
