M&M Blondies

These M&M Blondies are fabulously buttery and chewy and have a festive look from a generous amount of mini M&M’s. You could probably even find red and green seasonal M&M’s and really make them look Christmasy.

I know it’s just after Thanksgiving and you’re probably stuffed with pumpkin pie and pecan pie and hardly in the mood to think about sweets.

M&M Blondies

But I’m ready to dive right into that holiday baking season.

M&M Blondies

Everyone thinks of cookies when it comes to holiday baking, but I really like my bars. Both brownies and blondies. They are so easy to make and they tend to keep well too. The only downside is waiting for them to cool before slicing them.

M&M Blondies

This M&M Blondie recipe is adapted from America’s Test Kitchen and I find their recipes pretty much always work and they can be a good base for trying something a little different.

I love how pretty M&M’s make these blondies look, but you could certainly use chocolate chips instead.

Those bright colors! Don’t they just cheer you up? Especially on a dreary late autumn day.

I think you’ll find these M&M Blondies are both soft and chewy with just the right amount of sweetness.

How Do I Know When My Blondies Are Done?

Use the toothpick test to determine if your blondies are done. Insert a toothpick in the center and if it comes out with just a few moist crumbs attaches, it is done. Be sure not to overbake them because they will be dry.

Measure The Flour Correctly

When baking it is so important to measure the flour correctly, otherwise you risk adding too much flour which will result in a dry product. Start by fluffing the flour up some in the bag or container. Then gently scoop it using a large spoon into a dry measuring cup. Overfill it slightly and then run the back of a knife across the top to get rid of the excess.

How To Store M&M Blondies

Can be stored at room temperature in an airtight conatiner for 5 days or they can be frozen for up to 3 months.
