What are blondies and what do blondies taste like?

Blondies are a sister treat to brownies, and they are made with brown sugar (instead of cocoa powder) to bring out a rich vanilla flavor. Blondies are often made with nuts or other flavorings like peanut butter or layers of fruit jam.

How do you know when blondies are done?

While baking temperatures and times can vary by recipe, you can tell your blondies are done with the edges are golden brown and the center is just set. Even when you take your blondies out of the heat, they’ll continue to cook in the pan.
