I probably should have shared these double chocolate M&M Brownies with you last week so you could make them for your labor day festivities. Sorry about that – sometimes my lack of organizational skills gets the better of me.

But… these would make fantastic after school treats for those of you with kids! Or really great anytime treats for pretty much anybody who loves chocolate. Basically what I’m saying is that you can’t go wrong with these M&M brownies.

They are incredibly soft and fudgy, and who doesn’t want a brownie filled with both chocolate chips and M&M’s?? They were a hit with everyone I shared them with, and dangerously easy to make. If you like brownies and M&M’s, you’ve got to try these.

P.S. I also made a white chocolate chip version that was pretty amazing as well!

If you’re looking for more great brownie recipes, I’d recommend considering these chewy peanut butter brownies, peanut butter pretzel brownies, cream cheese brownies, or cosmic brownies.  And of course I wouldn’t do you any favors if I failed to mention these chewy brownies (aka The Best Brownies I’ve Ever Eaten)!

  • 4 large eggs

  3. In the same bowl, blend in the sugar and vanilla. Then add eggs, blending fully one at a time. Add flour and salt and beat until air bubbles form in the batter. Stir in 1/2 cup of M&M's and the remaining 1/2 cup chocolate chips.

  1. MMMMMMmmmmmm…..I love brownies, they are my ultimate weakness! These look so fudgy and I love the addition of M&M”s!

  2. I don’t have M&M’s right now, but I do have Andes candies baking pieces 🙂 Gotta try these — they look SO good!

  3. Oh I love brownies! I love the addition of the M&M’s!

  4. Oh, goodness God, this looks so delicious. This is definitely something I would take to school or potluck..thanks.

  5. Brownies are my classic go-to dessert! Love adding fun colored M&Ms. 🙂 These look so chewy…my favorite!

  9. Oh I think I’ll be making these at Christmas with red and green M&M’s. Perfect.

  10. These look beyond amazing! I’m drooling over the screen right now lol! Would it be possible to half the recipe? I don’t trust myself with a whole pan of brownies lying around the house! If I did half the recipe, what kind of pans could I use? Would a corning-ware pan work? Thanks so much!

  11. I helped a girl (she’s just learning to cook and loves it) in my building make this recipe. It was easy to make and tasted great! The only issue was that it did not cook (was still gooey in the center and throughout) in the recommended amount of time. Maybe this is because the pan size may have be slightly bigger or smaller than the one suggested.

  13. I had the same problem as another commenter. The middle stayed gooey even after an additional 20 minutes added onto the recommended time.

  14. Please say how much this recipe serves. Thanks

  15. Can I check if the m&ms will crack if baked slightly too long? Also if the M&ms will stay in position as I want to place them as words.

  16. Can someone tell me how to cut brownies easy? Most times the sides crumble and can’t get a nice cut.

  17. I can’t tell you how many times I have baked these brownies and have received nothing but positive comments. Thanks Megan for sharing your recipe.

  18. This is sooooo good i love the m and m. It melts in youre mouth

  19. These brownies are great, but mine were falling apart some. I wonder where I messed up that they weren’t really fudgey and kinda came apart. Any help?

  20. Can you make this recipe gluten-free
