Valentine Peanut Butter M&M Bars

Valentine’s Day is one of my favorite holidays because I just find it so romantic. The chocolate, flowers and all the love in the air, it’s just a lovely time.

With that being said, Valentine’s Day is the perfect excuse for me to make all the creamy, dreamy, chewy and chocolatey treats like this Valentine Unicorn Cake, Red Velvet Heart Crinkle Cookies, and this Strawberry Cocktail.

What You’ll Need to Make Valentine Peanut Butter M&M Bars

• Unsalted sweet cream butter, softened
• Creamy peanut butter
• Egg
• Light brown sugar
• Pure vanilla extract – Pure extract is best but you can also use imitation vanilla
• Flour – All purpose flour is best
• Valentines Day M&M’s
• Valentines Day Sprinkles
• Parchment Paper
• 9×9 baking pan

How to Make Valentine Peanut Butter M&M Bars

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a 9×9 baking pan with parchment paper

Using a large bowl, beat together the butter, peanut butter, sugar,
vanilla, and egg until combined and smooth

Gradually beat in the flour until combined and a soft dough forms

Gently fold in some of the M&M’s and Valentine sprinkles

Press the dough into the baking pan

Sprinkle the remaining M&M’s and Valentine sprinkles onto the top of the batter

Place into the oven and bake for 24-26 minutes or until a toothpick
comes out clean

Allow to cool completely before cutting into bars.

Serve and Enjoy!

Things to Note

• If you have a peanut allergy, you can trade the peanut butter for sunflower butter instead or remove that ingredient entirely.
• Cover any leftovers to avoid the bars getting hard.
