WHAT ARE BLONDIES?
Blondies have a similar baking style and fudgy texture as brownies. Both are bars, but blondies focus on vanilla flavour where as brownies are chocolate flavoured. Both don't use levelling agents (baking powder/soda) to create a dense chewy bar.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHAT DOES SPOONED AND LEVELLED FLOUR MEAN?
Spooned and levelled flour refers to the way of measuring flour. To properly measure flour you should scoop spoonfuls of flour into your measuring cup and then scrape with a knife to level off the access. Scooping the measuring cup directly into your flour cause the flour to compress and getting more than the recipe calls for.
STORING THE COOKIES
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature. The keep well up to four days.
CAN I FREEZE THEM?
Yes, you can stores the cooked bars in the freezer up to 2 months.
DO I NEED TO BRING MY EGGS TO ROOM TEMPERATURE?
Yes you do. Room temperature ingredients break down easier in the batter. This will give you a fudgier blondie and gives you a shiny top.
If you forget to take your eggs out of the fridge, no worries! Just run them under warm tap water for a few minutes and this will bring them to room temperature.
WHAT KIND OF SPRINKLES SHOULD I USE?
You can use any type of sprinkles you like. I personally prefer jimmies, these are the long sprinkles.
