CINNAMON BLONDIES

Just like many of you, all we’ve been doing during this time is baking. My way of curbing the calories is by only making small batches or 8×8 dishes. That way, once all of my family has had a treat, there’s only one or two left.

We oddly have all the time in the world but yet no time to get anything done after home school and cooking all the meals. Do you feel the same way?

Except for working out. We do a lot of that. Not that it offsets it. When you’re married to a pro athlete you sometimes feel like you are his latest project. Help.

Nothing hits the spot like a warm snickerdoodle. These are a blend between a snickerdoodle and a blondie. Chewy, cinnamon sugar bars that are a slice of heaven.

CAN I DOUBLE THIS?

Yes. You can double this and bake it in a 9×13 baking dish. Bake for about 30-35 minutes.

    these are amazing!!! I added the topping to the batter, and then made more, to put on top. Very tasty! Hubby and friends have asked me to make them again 🙂

      Yay!

    I made these yesterday and there is only one left today. WOW is all I can say. Great recipe. I followed it exactly except for the topping. I had McCormick’s cinnamon/sugar mixture and sprinkled it on top. My family loves anything with cinnmon and sugar so, of course, I use a nice amount of the mixture. I also sprinkled some sanding sugar on top of that. Definitely going to double the next time.

    Many thanks for such a wonderful recipe.

    Can you please check the topping ingredients? I don’t think there’s any way those quantities can be correct.

    • Christy Denney Reply

      It is correct! I know it doesn’t sound like a lot but you’ll be surprised that it covers well.

If the brownies still look wet or aren't pulling away, they aren't done. Even fudgy brownies will pull from the edges once they've finished baking.

In the UK, eggs with the Red Lion seal of approval are safe to eat raw or undercooked. So you can slightly undercook blondies and brownies if you prefer a fudgier texture. However, if you don't cook them enough, you just have a tray of uncooked batter.
