How do you store blondies?

Let your blondies cool completely in the baking pan before removing them and storing them in an airtight container for up to a week. 

Why are my blondies falling apart?

Blondies may fall apart due to overmixing, underbaking, or slicing before they’ve fully cooled. Using the correct pan size and allowing them to set properly helps maintain their structure.

Are Blondies meant to be gooey in the middle?

Yes, blondies should be slightly gooey in the middle but set around the edges. They should have a soft, chewy texture without being overly underbaked.

What’s the difference between brownies and blondies?

Brownies are rich and chocolatey, made with cocoa or melted chocolate, while blondies have a buttery, vanilla-based flavor and rely on brown sugar for their chewy texture. Unlike brownies, blondies don’t contain chocolate as a primary ingredient.

    1. I just made these. Easy recipe and the results are very good. I had miniature Easter Eggs, not M&M’s. I should have cut them a bit, but overall I really like this recipe and will use again. Thank you.
