Maple Pecan Blondies
Here’s a blondie recipe that I have made many times! Mine are never as gooey as Gemma’s and that’s probably because I over-bake them. I should keep a better eye on them next time. I like to brown the butter first but it’s not necessary. Enjoy! Maple Pecan Blondies Makes 9-12 servings Original recipe from Bigger Bolder Baking Ingredients ¾ cup butter, melted or browned 1¼ cups dark brown sugar ½ cup maple syrup 1 large egg 2 teaspoons vanilla 1/2 teaspoon salt 2 cups all-purpose flour ¼ teaspoon baking soda I ¼ cups pecans, toasted and chopped Directions Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease and line a 9x13” baking pan with parchment. Gemma used 8x8 but I like my bars thinner. Whisk together the butter, brown sugar, maple syrup, egg, vanilla, and salt. Stir in the flour and baking soda just until combined. Stir in the pecans. Pour mixture into prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes. They middle should be slightly jiggly but they still taste yummy if yo...
Awww yum! If only I could eat a plate of this right now. Looks delicious.

This looks so yummy! It looks really similar to my mac and cheese recipe, just a couple little differences. I don't put nutmeg or paprika in mine and yours has a runnier sauce (in a good way!). My husband's all time favorite is my recipe but I love trying others and I think I will need to try yours :) Any idea how many ounces of pasta you use? 5 cups of dry macaroni would weigh a lot more than 5 cups of penne. Here's my recipe in case you wanted to take a peek, no picture for some reason but I'll add it next time I make it!

I'll let you know when I try your recipe :)
Yeah...my arteries hurt from just looking at it, but it looks good nonetheless. =)
