“Company’s coming, the house is a wreck – but if I had some fresh baked goods to offer, I may be able to pretend I’ve got things under control.”
Have you ever felt that way (can you tell I have???).
These blondies are the perfect answer. They are really quick to whip up, adaptable to the flavors of your liking and quite good as well!
What I did instead of mixing in the add-ins, I divided my pan in thirds and topped each third differently. The platter looked fabulous and everyone had something that they liked.

1 stick of butter or margarine is equivalent to 1/2 cup or 8 Tablespoons. The flour I used was regular all purpose flour. I hope you will give these a try.
