    Peanut Butter Blondies are unthinkably delicious, super easy to make and they are the perfect excuse to bake when you have extra candy on your hands. This is the perfect easy dessert to bring to any gathering!

    Are any of you cursing the leftover Halloween candy sitting in your house like I am? Candy is impossible for me to ignore. And we have a ton left over. I am talking bags and bags who have spawned smaller baby bags. I’ve been thinking up ways to get rid of said candy and I plan to incorporate it bit by bit into a handful of recipes to give away. And eat, of course. If you are finding yourself in the same predicament, please join me in my halloween-candy-must-go efforts. You will LOVE these Peanut Butter Blondies. Mmmmm-MMMM!

    HOW TO MAKE PEANUT BUTTER BLONDIES

    STEP 1

    • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a square baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.

    STEP 2

    • In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt. Mix well and set aside. In a large bowl, combine sugar, melted butter, peanut butter, egg and vanilla extract. Mix until light and fluffy.

    STEP 3

    • Gradually add the flour mixture and mix until just combined. Pour batter into prepared baking dish and press down evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until golden brown.

    STEP 4

    • Remove from oven and immediately top with candy bar pieces. Allow to cool completely before cutting. Cut into bars and serve!
