Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9x13 baking dish with parchment paper, with a slight overhang on the 2 longer sides.
Place cookie dough and the pecans in a large resealable plastic bag and knead to combine so the pecans are evenly distributed throughout the dough. Press dough evenly over the bottom of the prepared pan.?
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown., then set aside to cool.
In the meantime, place coconut in a small bowl or bag along with a couple dots of green food coloring. Gently knead to combine and coat all the coconut until it's green (like grass.) Set aside.
Melt candy melts according to package directions until melted and smooth.
Pour the melted chocolate over the top of the cooled baked cookie dough and spread evenly. Lightly sprinkle with the green dyed coconut flakes, followed by the M&Ms (making sure the M&Ms touch the chocolate, so they'll stick and not fall off.)
Allow chocolate to set at room temperature (or chill in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes to speed up the process.)
Remove from pan onto a cutting board and cut into bars.?
