I made these fun little treats for a picnic the weekend before the 4th of July. They’re delicious, and you can easily replace the M&M’s with all colors, or toffee bits, crushed oreos – whatever you want! Just keep the 2 cups of add-ins to the mix.
For those not familiar, blondies are sort of like ‘vanilla’ flavored brownies. Nice change of pace!
Super quick to pull together and delicious. We bought a large bag of M&M’s and I picked out the red/blue – and got about a cup.
