I can’t be the only one that stocks up on holiday candy. I just can’t be. My grocery store always puts the holiday candy on sale 4 or 5 weeks before the holiday. I’m talking a screaming deal sale that when combined with my coupons, makes them super screaming deal. Who doesn’t like a bag of M&M’s for half price?! The only hard part of having 6 or 10 bags of Valentines/Easter/Halloween/Christmas is not eating them. My solution: double knot the bag and hide it in Mark’s office. Outta sight, outta mind.
Right now there are 6 bags of Easter M&M’s, one bag of Reese’s eggs and one bag of Cadbury mini eggs safely tucked away.
These blondies come together in minutes, it’ll take longer for the butter to melt than putting the whole thing together. And, drum-roll please, it’s an RV and kid friendly recipe!
Now that your mouth is watering, let’s get to it.
Begin by melting 3/4 cup butter, that’s 1 1/2 sticks. While that’s melting, sift the flour, salt and baking soda.
Mix the sugars and melted butter together until well blended.
Add the egg, egg yolk and vanilla and mix until creamy.
Slowly add the flour until it’s just mixed in, don’t beat too much.
Stir in two cups Cadbury mini eggs. I’ll do the math for you, it’s one and a half bags or 120 grams.
Spread into an 11×7 baking pan. Don’t have that size, no worries. I like to use parchment paper for brownies so I don’t have to wash the baking pan and so I can use my new brownie cutter. Some people call it a pizza cutter but brownies and baked bars are so much more fun to cut.
Bake at 325 for about 40 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. You want the center to be set but not overdone. Let cool completely before cutting.
These are really sweet, I cut them much smaller than regular brownies.
