Funfetti Blondies
From scratch! Not from a mix! Dave was surprised when I said that--he assumed I'd doctored up a Funfetti cake mix. I took these to work last week because one of my coworkers said he was starting a Biggest Loser challenge. Before you judge me for being cruel, hear me out. I was helping. One morning, I was chatting with him when a coworker came past and criticized him for eating a chocolate croissant because she knows he's trying to lose weight. Then he explained that in two days he was starting a Biggest Loser challenge. So I asked if he was bulking up and he sheepishly said yes. So I immediately chimed in that I was going to bake and bring something in the next day. It was a Friday so that lends itself to a fun treat day anyway. See, I'm not evil. But these are so delicious you might have a hard time resisting.
Beantown Baker made these first and I found them while looking for something else altogether. But I'm glad I stumbled upon her recipe. Simple to make and cute as can be, wouldn't they be perfect for birthday baking? While I didn't alter the recipe, I didn't have any almond extract, so I only used vanilla. The white chocolate chips and sprinkles really give these blondies great texture. They are rich and sweet, just as any good blondie should be. The only way they'd be better is with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.
