    These are the kitchen tools and equipment needed to make this M&Ms Cookie Cake Recipe

    The cake pan is Wilton. I grabbed it while thrifting but this is it on amazon. It's "roughly" 12x12 so if you didn't have a heart pan, you could swap it for a 12" pizza pan. The measurements in this Amazon pan actually match mine.

    How to Make this M&Ms Cookie Cake Recipe

    Preheat your oven to 375 and grease a heart baking pan with nonstick cooking spray and then set it aside. 

    Mix together chocolate chip cookie mix, butter and egg.

    The mixture will be stiff and takes a little work for it to come together, but it will. Spread evenly into the prepared baking pan. Top with about ½ cup of candies.

    Bake for 12-14 minutes or until golden brown and edges begin to brown. Remove from oven and cool completely before frosting.
