Double-Decker Confetti Brownies


3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) butter or margarine, softened
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
3 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups flour, divided
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 Tbsp butter or margarine, melted
1 cup M&Ms semi-sweet chocolate mini baking bits, divided.

Preheat oven to 350. Lightly grease 9 by 13 pan and set aside. In a large bowl, cream 3/4 butter and sugars until light and fluffy; beat in eggs and vanilla. In a medium bowl, combine 2 1/4 cups flour, baking powder and salt; blend into creamed mixture. Divide batter in half. Blend together cocoa powder and melted butte; stir into one half of the dough. Spread cocoa dough evenly into prepared baking pan. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup M&Ms bits. Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until the edges start to pull away from sides of pan. Cool completely.
