toys are good food

Or my search for a tasty blonde brownie.

This wasn’t quite it, but still yummy and good. These had more of a cookie, crumbly texture instead of moist brownie goodness. Still, I’ll make them again as a treat.

Blonde Brownies by Nestle(r) Toll House

• 2 1/4 c. all-purpose flour
• 2 1/2 tsp. baking powder
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1 3/4 c. firmly packed brown sugar
• 3/4 c. butter, softened
• 3 eggs
• 1 tsp. vanilla extract
• 1 (12-oz) pkg. butterscotch morsels (or semi-sweet chocolate chips)

1. Preheat oven to 350&deg. Grease a 15×10″ jelly roll pan.
2. Combine flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl. Beat sugar and butter in a large mixing bowl until creamy. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Gradually beat in flour mixture, stirring only until mixed. Stir in morsels.
3. Spread into prepared pan. Bake for 18-25 minutes, or until top is golden brown. (Do NOT overcook – will be like bricks.) Cool in pan on wire rack.
