The kids and I were craving something sweet one evening around 9:00. I told them if we could find a quick and easy recipe we would make it. So we each grabbed a cookbook from the cupboard and started looking. I found this recipe in a Taste of Home "Bake Sale" magazine and adapted it. These are easy, quick and yummy. Perfect for packing in school lunches!!
Chocolate Chip Blondies
1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a microwave safe glass mixing bowl, melt the butter. Add brown sugar, eggs and vanilla and mix until just blended. In a small bowl mix the flour, baking powder and salt together. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and mix well. Stir in chocolate chips.
Grease a 9x13 metal pan with cooking spray or Crisco. Spread the batter into the pan. It will just cover the bottom, you will have to spread pretty thin. But they will puff up some when they bake. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. I use an insulated pan, so I have to bake mine for more like 28 minutes. Cool on a wire rack. While still warm, run a knife around the edge of the pan to loosen bars from side.
Enjoy with a big glass of milk!!
