How to Make Easter Blondies
Grab yourself a large bowl, and you are ready to whip up this blondie batter.


Preheat oven to 350F degrees, grease an 8x8 square baking pan and line with parchment paper.
In a large bowl whisk together your dry ingredients: all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt.
Using a stand mixer, add in butter and sugars and mix until very smooth with the paddle attachment on low/medium.
Add in eggs and vanilla and mix on low just until combined.
Then slowly add the flour mixture to your wet ingredients until well incorporated. Push down any dough as it starts to rise in the bowl.
Using a spatula mix in chopped mini eggs half at a time to ensure even distribution. Reserve some for the top if desired.
Place dough into your prepared pan and add any additional candies on top, pushing them into the dough just slightly.
Bake blondies in a preheated oven for 40 minutes at 350F, or until golden brown and a toothpick comes up clean but with some moist crumbs from the center of the pan.
Allow to fully cool before removing and cut into bars with a sharp knife.
Hint: Use a sharp knife to (carefully) chop mini eggs into smaller pieces but leave some whole for extra crunch.

How to Store our Easter Blondie bars
As much as you will want to eat up this perfect treat, storing them is okay too! Here is how we do it.
- Refrigerator: Once cooled, place in an airtight container for 3-4 days on the counter, then in the fridge up to a week.
- Freezer: Wrap tightly in plastic wrap, then store in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. Thaw on the counter when ready to eat.
- Make Ahead: While you can chop up your candies and mix your dry ingredients in advance, it is quick enough to make the batter once you are ready to bake. If you wanted to do it 2 days in advance you can leave the mixed dough in the fridge and allow to come to room temperature before baking.
