Blondies are very similar to brownies, just without the cocoa content. The lack of chocolate means you can experiment with a range of flavors and textures, and as delicious as brownies are sometimes it’s nice to try something a little different. Read on for a great blondie recipe, plus three ways to adapt it to make it your own.
Ingredients:
