Ingredients
  

  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2/3 cup dark brown sugar packed
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour 140-145 grams total*** with the 2 tbsp
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1/8 tsp baking powder
  • 1/8 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips
  • 3/4 cup M&M's *Valentine's themed colors

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving overhang for easy removal, and lightly grease.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and dark brown sugar until smooth. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.

  • Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of M&Ms on top, pressing them lightly into the batter or you can press them in after baking and they will be more vibrant.
  • Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the edges are golden and set, and the center looks slightly underbaked. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with a few moist crumbs, not wet batter.
  • Allow the blondies to cool in the pan for at least 1 hour. For the best texture, transfer them to the fridge for 30 minutes after cooling before slicing.
  • Lift the blondies out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang, slice into squares, and enjoy!
