These 'Golden M&M Bars' were really M&M-y. There was a lot of M&Ms in them, 1.75 cups of M&Ms. Not just M&Ms but an additional 1 cup of 'white baking chips' (White chocolate chips). That's a LOT of chocolate. Converting this to grams is ~255 g of M&Ms and ~175 g of white chocolate chips for a whopping total of ~430 g in a 13" x 9" pan ... that is almost HALF A KILO!
I only own a glass baking dish so it didn't seem to bake correctly. I took it out and waited for it to cool and then cut it. The squares were still pretty raw. So, I put them back into the oven to baked for another 20 minutes (checking every 5 to see if it was less raw) which at that point it was over baked and hard as a rock ... I guess if I ever make this again, I would either get a new pan or bake it 5 - 10? minutes longer in a glass dish.
Verdict:
If you like M&Ms, then you will love this. If you are looking for a cake-y / brownie like bar with some M&Ms and not a mouthful of M&Ms with each bite, stay away. The white chocolate didn't really add anything either.
Kid Approved? Yes (of course, its has so many M&Ms)
