What makes you happy these days?
It’s Spring today, which makes me happy, even though it comes hand in hand with allergy season.
A good manicure makes me pretty happy especially if glitter polish is involved.
A clean house (if even for a moment) makes me exponentially happy.
The Bachelor has finally ended which makes me all sorts of happy, but a little sad at the same time. But The Bachelorette will be starting soon, so….happy again!
Easter’s almost here which makes me happy because that means I can unabashedly decorate the house in pastel colors and not feel like I live inside an episode of The Golden Girls.
And of course cookies make me happy.
Of course.
And these Cookie Sticks make me even happier because I didn’t even have to use my mixer. Just a bowl and a spoon. Happy sigh.
How to Make These Easy Cookie Bars
Mix your wet ingredients together first. Yes, sugar is a wet ingredient, don’t ask.
Add your dry stuff and split it half…
Spread it out in two long rectangles on your lined baking sheet.
I found these yummies at the store last week…White Chocolate M&Ms.
I decided to give them a try here..
Press the M&Ms (or chocolate chips) on top before you bake.
Here’s the before and after…
Let them cool a bit and using a pizza cutter or knife cut into strips.
And that’s it…
Let them cool completely before eating, if you can wait!

SO creative!! I am LOVING these! I pinned them and will DEFINITELY be making them with my easter color m&ms soon. 🙂
I love the stick idea. That totally means you can eat more! The cute shape is fun and the kids can just grab one and go…..or two or three…
I will definitely give this a try! I´m just wondering if I can replace the canola oil with some other type of oil? I actually don´t know what it is and if we have it here in Sweden…
sure, you can easily sub in vegetable oil!
Then I will give them a try soon, thanks =)
You have great recipes as well as wonderful presentations. Keep up the good work.
These are fab – I know my boys would clear a plate of these in no time at all…but they’d have to beat me there first! LOL
I always thought sugar was a wet ingredient! I love that M&Ms keep coming up with new flavors..but especially love all the awesome recipes everyone is creating! Love these. 🙂
This is what makes me happy. Very very happy!
If I use choc chips would I mix them in the dough or press in the top like the m&ms??
press them in the top, just like the M&Ms 🙂
I really hope it doesn’t take five million years for my local grocery store to get those M&M’s in stock. They’re so slow on the candy trends!
Love the sticks and I need to find those M&M”s! So fun!
