Easter Blondies Recipe

I love a good brownie as much as the next person, but sometimes I want a little change so we make blondies. Blondies are similar to brownies but they contain vanilla instead of cocoa and are made using brown sugar. To make my normal blondie recipe even better, I added some pastel colored M&M’s to make an Easter Blondies Recipe. These blondies are AMAZING! Seriously, the gooeyness and addition of the chocolate knock these out of the park.

EASTER BLONDIES RECIPE

You can use normal M&M’s in this blondie recipe, but since it’s spring I decided the pastel M&M’s were the way to go!

WHAT DO YOU NEED TO MAKE SPRING BLONDIES?

• flour
• baking powder
• salt
• melted butter
• brown sugar
• granulated sugar
• eggs
• vanilla extract
• pastel colored M&Ms

HOW DO YOU MAKE BLONDIES FOR EASTER?

You will be using a 9×13 pan for this recipe. I love this one from Pyrex. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Pour flour, salt and baking soda into a medium bowl and whisk together.

Melt butter and pour it into a large bowl. Add brown sugar and granulated sugar to bowl with melted butter.

Mix together until thoroughly combined.

Add 2 eggs and 3 teaspoons of vanilla extract to the melted butter and sugar mixture and mix well.

Add dry ingredients to bowl with wet ingredients.

Gently fold flour mixture into the wet ingredients, taking care not to over mix.

Pour most of the M&M candies into the batter.

Gently fold in the M&Ms to evenly distribute them.

Spread the batter into a greased 9×13 pan. Press some M&Ms into the top of the batter.

Bake the Easter blondies in a 350 degree oven for 20-25 minutes. You want to be sure to take them out when they have browned on top but are still a little gooey in the middle.

Remove from oven and let cool and cut them into bars. This Easter blondie recipe will make 16 servings.

I am a big fan of  Eat At Home Meal Plans. Are you stressed about the cost of eating out or trying to decide what to make for dinner each night? Sign up for the plans, and get access to 4 separate meal plans each month (Traditional, Wholesome Traditional, Slow Cooker, and No Flour/No Sugar). Just print the plans, color-coded grocery lists, and recipes you want for the month. Don’t worry, there are so many options, even picky eaters will find something they like.

When it is time for dinner, make that night’s recipe (choices include make-ahead, freezer meals, slow-cooker recipes, and other time-saving strategies) and you are all set.

I know you have more important things to do than meal planning. Let someone else do it for you with Eat At Home Meal Plans. Monthly, quarterly and annual plans are available.
