Recipe: Peanut Butter Blondies
Peanut Butter Blondies
I have been craving peanut butter bakes lately. This recipe for Peanut Butter blondies is one from a friend of mine Helen whose blog Fuss Free Flavours features this delicious recipe.
I remember when Brownies were in every cafe and coffee shop along with home made muffins. The idea of a Brownie without cocoa powder wasn’t even a topic of conversation. Of course there were other tray bakes similar to what we now refer to as a Blondie.
This recipe has peanut butter and chocolate chips however you could easily substitute white chocolate chips and macadamia nuts along with some melted white chocolate. I think this would take the Blondie to another level!

Looks good but didn’t try. When I’m in a hurry I don’t want to have to convert from metric to standard measurement. I realize I ‘m in the minority but I just wanted to let you know the recipe caught my eye but I was in a hurry. I looked to see if there was a button I could click to convert the measurements but I didn’t find it. I think it is my loss. It photos looked really yummy.
Thanks for your comment. I will try to find a plug in for my site that converts automatically for you.
