Halloween Blondies


These were another Martha Stewart cookie of the day.  I like blondies and so I decided to try them and I was not disappointed.  These are a moist gooey, fudgey, brownie my favourite kind!  If you like the cakey kind do not make these you will not like them.  They were also really easy to make, no beaters and only one bowl!  My kind of recipe!


Halloween Blondies
Ingredients
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted, plus more, room temperature, for pan
1 cup packed light-brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled)
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 cup each orange, yellow, and brown candy-coated chocolates (from a 12.6-ounce bag)

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brush an 8-inch square baking pan with butter; line pan with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on two sides. Butter paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together butter and sugars until smooth. Whisk in eggs and vanilla. Add flour, baking powder and salt; stir just until moistened. Transfer batter to prepared pan and smooth top. Arrange candies in 12 rows (2 rows per color, repeating once) on top of dough.
Bake until top of cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 45 to 50 minutes. Set pan on a wire rack and let cool completely. Using parchment overhang, lift cake from pan and transfer to a cutting board; cut into 16 squares. (To store, keep in an airtight container at room temperature, up to 2 days.)
