Serves 16 Ingredients 170g unsalted butter, softened 165g light brown sugar 100g granulated sugar 1 large egg and 1 egg yolk 2 tsp vanilla extract 215g plain flour 150g red and green candycoated chocolate buttons (for example, M&Ms) + 50g for the topping Method ■ Preheat the oven to 180°C/ 160°C fan/gas 4 and line a 20cm square baking tin with non-stick baking paper. ■ Put the butter and both sugars into a large mixing bowl and beat together with an electric hand mixer until light and fluffy. ■ Add the egg, egg yolk and vanilla extract and beat until light in colour (this can take a few minutes). ■ Fold in the flour until only a few streaks of flour remain. Fold through the 150g of chocolate buttons. Scoop the batter into your prepared tin and smooth it out to the edges. ■ Sprinkle the remaining candy-coated chocolate buttons over the top. Feel free to add more if you like. ■ Bake for 30 minutes until there is only a very slight wobble in the middle. Leave to cool completely in the tin, then chill in the refrigerator for about three hours for a firmer texture and a cleaner cut. ■ Cut into 16 squares. Enjoy!
