Preparation

  • Start by heating your flour. You can microwave for 1 minute, stirring every 20 seconds, or bake at 350º F for 5 minutes. You want the flour to be 160º F. Let it cool.
  • Line a 9-inch baking dish with foil or parchment paper.
  • Combine butter, sugar, and brown sugar together in a large bowl. Mix at medium speed until combined.
  • Add peanut butter and the vanilla, mix until well blended.
  • Stir in the flour mixing until just incorporated.
  • Slowly add oats, 1 cup at a time until it forms a dough.
  • Fold in M&M's. Press into prepared pan.
  • In a microwave safe bowl melt together chocolate and heavy cream, in 30 second increments. Once smooth, pour over cookie dough mixture. Sprinkle with remaining M&M's.
  • Refrigerate for 1-2 hours, or until chocolate is completely set up before serving.
