Easy Christmas M&M Blondies recipe. These nut free treats are perfect for a holiday dessert or snack idea that the whole family will love.
Last week of school is on Monday. How is the year almost over?? I am still shocked at how fast this year is going.
And how is it almost Christmas too? A week has gone by since my last post, and I am still in the same position. No Christmas presents have been bought.
Except for some random American foods that you can’t buy in Canada. But that’s about it! I’ve gotta get moving!
What that also means is that my Christmas baking is going to be anything and everything quick and easy to make.
Like these Christmas M&M Blondies.
I wanted to say that they are better than my Mini Egg Blondies, but that would be a lie.
I think I will go with, they are almost as good as my Mini Egg Blondies.
(Be sure to bookmark the Mini Egg Blondies for Easter. You’ll thank me later)
So it seems like all of my gifts are going to be baked treats. Because I am much too anxious of large crowds to go to a brick and mortar store and buy gifts.
Also, I am probably too late for the free shipping on online purchases before I leave for Vancouver.
I think I sabotaged myself on purpose so I could stay in and bake.
The best part about making these blondies? You can snack on M&Ms the entire time you are baking it.
Another great thing about them? They are SO versatile. You can mix in whatever you like in place of M&Ms. It is basically like 10 different recipes in one.
What would you mix into these blondies?
Also, would you want to receive this as a Christmas gift? I’m asking for a friend.
