Tips and Substitutions

  • Use a glass or light-colored baking pan to prevent the base of the blondies from becoming too dark.
  • Line the baking pan or dish with parchment paper to make removing the blondies from the container easier.
  • To avoid a tough batch of blondies, don’t overmix the batter.
  • Allow the blondies to cool completely before cutting them, stabilizing the shape.
  • If you can’t get hold of peeps or you want to make this outside of Easter – use marshmallows instead.
