blondies
I never was really a blondie person before. They tasted a little too...
blah
to me.
Until we found the best recipe in the world.
I had no idea that blondies are actually supposed to taste like a chocolate chip cookie with the texture of moist brownies. Like these do.
Make these.
Your life will be forever changed. I promise you.
(Adapted from this recipe...but use my version. Unless you want to die of too much salt and overdone blondies...I always double this recipe. I also omitted the walnuts, but feel free to add them.)
