Julie Wischmeier in Brownstown, Indiana says, "I originally whipped up these bars to bring something new and colorful to my Christmas cookie trays. When I give them to my kids’ teachers, they’re gone in a flash! I make them ahead when convenient, then freeze. You can use M&Ms in different colors for holidays year-round."

Ingredients:
- 1 tube (16-1/2 ounces) refrigerated peanut butter cookie dough
