2 large eggs

⅓ cup vegetable oil

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

# Instructions:
01 -
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (177°C). Lightly coat a 9×13 inch casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.

In a large bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until well blended. The mixture will be thick and sticky. Gently fold in the colorful Easter M&M candies and semi-sweet chocolate chips until they're evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Spread the cookie bar dough evenly into your prepared dish, smoothing the top with a spatula. Pop it into the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the center is just set. Don't overbake if you want them chewy!

Allow the cookie bars to cool completely in the pan before cutting. This helps them set up properly. Once cooled, slice into squares and serve.
