karen’s signature blondies
a long time ago, i ate my first blondie, and there was no going back. but blondies are finicky. sometimes they are too sweet. sometimes they are too gooey. and sometimes they are just way too heavy. a friend shared this recipe a few years back, and i have found them to be the absolute perfect blondie. just enough sweetness, just the right texture, just the right consistency. and they are good. very good. especially, if i may suggest, with a scoop of vanilla or coffee ice cream. a special thanks goes out to my friend (you know who you are) who shared this with me. but honestly, these don’t get made too often because i can’t afford all the calories and i can’t just stop at one.
