Do you know what happens when you look in your pantry and think, “What can I make with these ingredients that will look really pretty so that people will want to eat it at the potluck?”

You end up mixing M&Ms and crushed Oreos into cookie bars.  I must say, it was a success.

Ingredients

• 1 box devils food cake mix
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil or applesauce
• 1 cup mint chocolate M&Ms (I only used green and white candies)
• 1 package mint chocolate Oreos

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and spray a 9×13 inch pan with nonstick spray.
• Mix together cake mix, eggs, and oil until well combined.
• Fold M&Ms into batter.
• Place 10 Oreos in a plastic bag and crush them with a rolling pin.  Fold crushed Oreos into batter.
• Bake for 5 minutes.  Remove pan from oven and press remaining 20 Oreos into the top of the batter.
• Return to oven and bake an additional 20-25 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the cookie bars comes out clean.
• Let cool completely before cutting into 20 rectangles.
• Eat and enjoy!
