Ingredients
- ¾ cup light brown sugar packed
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted, cooled slightly
- 1 large egg room temperature
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup holiday M&Ms
- ¼ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ¼ cup white chocolate chips* optional, leave out or use cream cheese chips
Instructions
- Spray an 8 inch square pan with baking spray. Line the pan with parchment paper. Leave an overhang on both sides to make the blondies easier to remove from the pan once baked.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar and melted butter.
- Add the vanilla extract and the egg. Whisk to combine.
- With a spatula, fold the flour and salt into the wet ingredients. Stir until just combined.
- Fold in the M&Ms, chocolate chips and white chocolate chips* (if using)
- Turn batter out into the baking pan. Spread it evenly and smooth the top with an offset spatula.
- Bake 21-23 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean or with just a few crumbs when inserted in the center of the blondies.
- Place the pan on a wire rack and allow blondies to cool completely in the pan.
Notes
White Chocolate Chips: Leave out white chocolate chips or use cream cheese chips if you can find them. You could also add extra M&Ms or extra semi-sweet chocolate chips.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 day or refrigerate up to 1 week. Store the cooled and sliced blondies in a freezer bag for up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge or at room temperature overnight before serving.
