Christmas Blondies

Loaded with M&Ms, crushed Oreos, and chocolate chips, we could not think of a better way to celebrate Christmas.

INGREDIENTS

Cooking spray
180 g butter, softened
200 g caster sugar
110 g packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
250 g plain flour
3/4 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
8 Oreos, crushed
100 g Christmas M&M’s
65 g semisweet chocolate chips

METHOD

1. Preheat oven to 180°C (160ºC fan) and grease a 22-cm x 22-cm (9”-x-9”) pan with cooking spray. In a large bowl using a hand mixer, beat butter and both sugars until light and fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla and beat until combined.
2. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and beat until just combined. Fold in Oreos, M&M’S, and chocolate chips.
3. Press batter into prepared pan and bake until golden and still slightly soft in the middle, 25 to 30 minutes.
4. Let cool completely before slicing into squares.
