Easter is only a week and a half away! It’s almost the end of March and I still can’t believe that we are in the year 2013. I swear the days and hours are flying by so quickly and I just want to YELL stop! Spring just started and I’m still left here wondering where Winter was this year. I know most of the states are still getting packed with snow but we saw none of that here in Houston. Oh well better luck this next year!
Now on to these M&M Blondies…..
I can’t believe I am openly admitting this but I have NEVER made blondies. You can tell from this blog that I make a ton of cookies but never ventured to the blondie side. Some may ask why is it called a “blondie?’ They are basically a blonde brownie without the chocolate. However if you are like me I tried to incorporate a little chocolate by adding the white chocolate morsels. I NEEDED to incorporate it somehow. Chocolate makes everything better even blondies!
I am officially sold on these. I can’t wait to make more and try out different variations. It really makes a difference with the browned butter.
Basically a blonde brownie with m&m’s and white chocolate chip morsels.
Add butter to a medium size sauce pan over low/medium heat. Stir constantly until the butter has melted then remove from heat. Add the brown sugar and stir until it is well coated. Set aside until it becomes room temperature.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a mixing bowl whisk the eggs and vanilla. Then add the butter and brown sugar mixture.
Slowly add the flour, salt and baking powder. Whisk until everything is combined.
Stir in the m&m candies and chocolate chip morsels.
Line a 8X8 baking pan with parchment paper and drop the mixture into the pan. (It may seem thick so you will have to work with it to go all around the pan.)
Cook for 30-35 minutes and then remove. Allow to cool for 15 minutes before cutting into pan.

I’ve never made blondies either-lol! I always just figure I’d rather have a cookie or a brownie 😛 These look super good, though, and so pretty!
Haha I was the exact same way. It was stick with what you know but I just had to try them out.
I love blondies. These are a great treat, Meagan!
These would be devoured within hours in our house. Yum. They look fantastic! Great recipe!
Thanks Kate
M&M blondies are the best! Love that you added white chocolate!
Definitely had to add some sort of chocolate in it.
Blondies just aren’t as fun as brownies, unless you go and add stuff, which you did a great job of here. 🙂
They look awesome! And browned butter?! Yup. They sound pretty much perfect.
I agree that blondies are not as fun as brownies! Any dessert in my opinion needs a little extra something to it like chocolate!
I had blondies for the first time a couple of months ago.. .and dare I say they’re better than brownies?? M&M’s are my weakness and putting them in blondies is s-m-a-r-t!
I love blondies (even more than brownies) and I love that you added a kick of chocolate in! Such a good idea!
These blondies look SO good! I like them better than brownies. 🙂 And the M&Ms add a nice touch too! thank you for linking up to my M&M blondies!
Oh good Lawwwwd, I need to get on these so very soon!! WOW!
