I think these are the best blondies and brownies recipes ever! It is so simple, using few ingredients and you can mix in anything that you have on hand that you like. I used some leftover M&Ms and some walnuts that I had left in the pantry.
They both come out moist and delicious and will become a staple recipe you will use. The kids will even like these delicious beauties!
