• heaping 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• pinch salt, optional and to taste

• about 2/3 cup Peanut Butter M&Ms (I used one 2.83-ounce ‘King Size’ bag sold; optionally substitute with Peanut or Plain M&Ms)

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 350F. Spray a 9-inch pie dish with floured cooking spray; set apart.
2. In a large, microwave-secure bowl melt the butter, approximately 1 minute on high strength.
3. Wait momentarily earlier than including the egg so that you don’t scramble it. upload the egg, brown sugar, peanut butter, vanilla, and whisk until easy.
4. upload the flour, elective salt, and stir till simply blended; don’t overmix.
