Before you get started on this recipe, here are few key tips and suggestions. One key tip to remember though is that when you are scooping out the flour. Do NOT use the scoop with a measuring cup method. You must spoon the flour out and add it the measuring cup then level it off with a butter knife.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A BROWNIE AND A BLONDIE?
The only difference is that you will not use cocoa powder when making a blondie. They are still perfectly delicious.
WHY IS IT CALLED A BLONDIE?
Because it resembles a brownie but doesn’t use a few of the main ingredients that brownies do.
