Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Step 2

Line a 13"x9" baking pan with parchment paper. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, cream butter for 30 seconds. Add both sugars and beat for 3 minutes, until light and fluffy.
Step 4

Add egg and vanilla and mix until well incorporated.
Step 5

In another mixing bowl, whisk together flour, pudding mix, soda and salt.
Step 6

Add the dry ingredients to the butter-sugar mixture and mix with an electric mixer until almost incorporated. Switch to a rubber spatula or a wooden spoon, add chocolate chips and M&M's (reserving some) and stir in until well mixed.

Bake bars for 22 to 25 minutes or until the top is golden brown. Cool to room temperature, slice and serve.
