I got this recipe from the Baked Perfection blog a few years ago which was adapted from allrecipes.com. At a friend’s suggestion, I doubled the recipe to fit a 13 x 9 pan. (Don’t double what is shown below! It’s already doubled.) And since I was making it for an event on the eve of Valentine’s Day…I threw in the white, pink and red M&Ms.
Brown Sugar Blondies for Valentine's Day
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ⅔ cup butter (I used salted sticks)
- 2 cups packed light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons vanilla extract
- One bag (12-13 oz.) of M&Ms of any color
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease a 13 x 9 pan.
- Mix together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl and set to the side.
- Melt ⅔ cup butter.
- Mix melted butter with the firmly packed brown sugar - I used a mixer for this.
- Cool slightly (just let it sit a minute).
- Add 2 beaten eggs and then the vanilla.
- Blend well (again in mixer).
- With the mixer on low, slowly add the flour mixture a bit at a time until it is all well mixed.
- Stir in 1⅓ cup of the M&Ms.
- Spread into a 13 x 9 pan.
- Sprinkle the remainder of the M&Ms on top.
- Bake for 40 minutes.
- Cool before slicing.
