These soft and chewy M & M blondies are full of M & M’s. Customize these blondies by using your favorite color combination of candy to add a holiday flare to these delicious treat.

Some other fun recipes made with M & M’s include White Chocolate Frito Popcorn, Monster Cookies, and Munchies Ice Cream.

4th of July Blondie

When you are looking for a quick and easy dessert treat these M & M Blondies are the answer. When you don’t have time to scoop out and bake several batches of cookies, blondies are just what you need. The same flavor and goodness of a cookie but in easy bar form.

Today we are adding in red, white and blue M & M’s to create the perfect patriotic, 4th of July Blondie treat but use whatever color of M & M’s you have.

What is a Blondie?

A blondie is basically a brownie with out the cocoa powder in it.

It is the perfect bar cookie for your non chocolate lovers but it still has enough chocolate in it for your chocolate fans!

How to Make M & M Blondies

  • Preheat oven to 350
  • Line a 9 x 13 pan with foil and then spray with baking spray.
  • Combine butter and sugars. Beat until fluffy
  • Add in eggs and vanilla
  • Gradually add in flour and salt until blended.

  • Mix in chips and M & M. Use any combination of chips and M & M’s you like.
  • Spread batter into pan and bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and a tooth pick comes out only slightly gooey.
  • Cool and remove from pan by lifting up the foil.

  • After they are baked and cooled I drizzled some white chocolate over the top.
  • Sprinkle some additional M & M’s on top of drizzled chocolate if desired.

  • Allow the drizzled chocolate to set up and then cut into bars.

Tips for Perfect Blondies

  • Measure ingredients carefully. Blondies are suppose to be chewy and adding too much flour in will create a more cake like, less chewy blondie.
  • Do not over-bake. This will also dry out the blondie and make it less chewy.
  • Use room temperature ingredients. They will incorporate easier and you will not over mix the dough which can cause a tougher blondie.

M & M Blondie Variations

  1. Use any color combination of M & M’s and chips that you like.
  2. Add in other candies such as in these Peanut Butter Cup Blondies, Malted Milk Balls Blondies, White Chocolate Toffee Blondies or flavor of chocolate chips like these Butterscotch Blondies.
  3. The addition of cinnamon to a blondie creates a delicious Snickerdoodle Blondie. These Cheesecake Snickerdoodle Blondies are another favorite.

      I have never baked by substituting yogurt for butter but if that is something you commonly do I’d give it a try
