- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top with a spatula for an even finish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes until the brownie base is just set.
- Remove the partially baked brownies from the oven and sprinkle the Hershey’s Holiday Bits evenly over the top.
- Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 20 to 25 minutes, or until the brownies begin to pull away from the sides of the pan and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached.
- Cool the brownies completely on a wire rack before cutting them into bars.
- Serve and enjoy these delightful Hershey’s Holiday Bits Brownies as a festive addition to your holiday dessert spread or as a sweet treat any time of year!
