M&M Brownie Bark
This is a mix of I Heart Eating’s M&M Brownie Bark Recipe and her source recipe from King Arthur Flour, Brownie Crisps, which used chocolate chips exclusively.
I don’t normally cook with M&Ms, but a guest insisted on leaving us an unopened bag of two or three pounds of them, and we had a party to go to.

Variants
One of the original recipes was a bit incoherent on the flour amount. Reducing the flour may result in thinner crisps, or maybe it was just a typo.
One of the original recipes called for espresso powder and milk powder.
I have seen similar recipes that included nuts.
