Reese's Pieces Cookie Cake Bars-- Week 2 of 12 Weeks of Christmas Cookies

If there is one thing that my boys love, it is the combination of chocolate and peanut butter. 

I can't say that I really blame them! 

Coley actually picked out the Reese's Pieces for this recipe as the original calls for M&M's. 

This would be a quick and easy bar cookie for any upcoming get together! They are probably one of the easiest things I have made in a long time! It would be fun to experiment with all the fun baking pieces and different cake mix flavors that tend to come out during the holidays!

Be careful on your baking time as I overbaked mine!

 They still had a great taste and we loved them!
