peanut butter blondies

Here is a recipe for all you peanut butter lovers! These bars are kind of a mix between a peanut butter cookie and a peanut butter cake. They are dense and moist, and full of chocolate chips. I personally really enjoyed them, but surprisingly my sister who l-o-v-e-s peanut butter was not that excited about them. But she is quite picky with new recipes so I think we are just going to ignore her opinion.

If you are craving a fast peanut buttery dessert this will certainly do the trick. You can also easily half this recipe and make the blondies in a 8inch square pan. Enjoy!
