Confetti Blondies! (M&Ms)

The M & Ms melt for a rainbow confetti look!
I think my most asked for baked good to make is my blondies. Once someone gets a taste, they want them again. So when I asked Jeanie at work what she'd like for her birthday, she said, "I really like your blondies!" Easily done. I love making them & I love doing things differently every time. So for a birthday blondie, how about some confetti? These are a cinch to do- just add M & Ms! They add the color & the milk chocolate. Plus bright colors = happiness to me! Happy birthday, Jeanie!

Fun HIDING inside! Shhhhh
Lishie's "Confetti" Blondies

  • 1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup dark brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup M & M Candies

Preheat oven to 350°.

Butter and line a 9x9" baking pan with parchment paper. Butter the parchment paper too. Combine the flour, baking powder & salt in a medium bowl.

Melt the butter; add brown sugars & combine until sugar is melted in. Let the mix cool. Then whisk in the eggs & vanilla until combined. Blend in the flour mixture just until it's combined (*leaving a little to mix with the M & Ms. See tip below.) . Fold in the M & Ms. Scoop the batter into the prepped pan. Bake for about 25-30 minutes (until a toothpick comes out clean).

Makes 16.

*Lishie-tip- Leave about a TBsp of the flour mixture in it's original bowl & mix the M & Ms with it. This little bit of flour will help the candies not settle into the bottom of the pan.
