Why You Will Love This Chocolate Chip Blondies Recipe
Hello Friends! Can you believe that we are heading towards February already?
We had a few chilly evenings lately and it has been nice to stay in and read a book or catch up on our Netflix shows. Chilly evenings are also a great time to bake.
These cookies are the BOMB! Seriously, I have worked through several iterations of this cookie and this is my favorite version. Easy to make on a busy night when you want something sweet but don't want a lot of work.
These soft, moist bar cookies are delicious.

- You can substitute white chocolate chips for the chocolate.
