I'm cooking this todayRecipe's preparation
Pre heat oven to 160 degrees c and line a brownie tin with baking paper.
Put butter into bowl and melt for 1min30secs/50deg/sp4 or until butter is completely melted.
Add both the brown and caster sugar and mix sp5/20 secs.
Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
Add eggs and vanilla extract and mix sp5/10 secs
Add flour, salt and baking powder and mix sp5/10 secs
Scrape down sides of bowl and mix for a further 10 secs if needed.
Add 1 1/2 packets of the mini M&M's (reserving 1/2 packet for the top!) and mix
"Counter-clockwise operation" /10secs/sp5. If the M&M's dont mix in well, dont worry, they will get pressed into the tin anyway.Tip into prepared tin, pressing into corners, no need to be careful, press down so everywhere is covered, I usually do this with my palms and tips of fingers. The consistency will be like cookie dough.
Sprinkle the remainder if the M&M's on top of the mixture and gently press into dough, just to sit them nicely into the top of the dough.
Bake in the oven for 30mins or until nice and golden brown.
Test with a wooden tooth pick, they should be cooked, if not just cook for a further 5 mins.
M&M Cookie Bars
Tip
My 8yr old makes these with my supervision so is great to keep kids occupied.
Try with different types of M&M's and let me know how they turn out!

Recipe is created forTM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

Hi, it's the packet NOT the tube
When you say packet - is that the 145g bag or the tubes?
Hi, Im not sure if they will freeze as I have never frozen them before. Give it a go and let us know the outcome
Yum! will try with just one bagof m&ms next time
Can we freeze these?
super easy & the kids loved it!
Yum, kids love them, can't get them cut up and out of the tin fast enough!
be nice with white chocolate, raspberries and macadamia s too 
thank you
I have bar-shaped silicon moulds and I slightly overfilled them to make 12 individual bars (because I was short on time and couldn't do a second batch). I also forgot to get them out of the oven and they overcooked by about 15-20 minutes, I'm guessing.
Regardless, the taste was sensational. They were like a slightly overcooked (and therefore over-crispy) biscuit/cake hybrid that tasted just like the Subway M&M cookies and my lot were very happy with them.
Next time I'm going to follow the recipe properly (in the pan with the correct cooking time
). I'd also like to try subbing some of the flour for partially milled oats, and replacing the M&Ms with sultanas for the kids' lunch boxes, as they could replace the Mother Earth Oaty Slice bars that I currently buy.
Thank you so much for sharing this recipe!
I'm so glad they loved it!! My kids do too, its great warm with cream or custard too
My kids loved it
