Because, a few years ago when I heard that Brownies went blonde, I freaked out! In a good way. I felt that there was a justification for my fake hair color: if a Brownie can go Blondie, well, then so can I.
Now that I’ve confessed about my bottled hair, let me get one other thing off my chest … I like Blondies more than Brownies!
These babies are chewy, sweet, and versatile. You can add anything to them, and they will still taste great. I happen to like this combination of caramel and white chocolate because I just really like caramel and chocolate. I know that white chocolate is not chocolate, but whatever. I like it.
Feel free to add or substitute chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, nuts, dried fruits… anything goes.

Kate…I am with you! I much prefer blondies to brownies and I do think it’s all about that brown sugar. But I love that chewy, sticky sweet goodness….and caramel and white chocolate just sends this right over the top! They really look awesome! (and yes….I remember that video well!)
Haha, I love the confession. I am a big fan of the Madonna classics.
Oh I didn’t care that my hair was fake beach blonde haha..I was for more than decade blonde but got tired and went to dark, dark indigo black….talk about drastic change LOL!
anyhow your blondies look amazing and would be perfect with my afternoon coffee. Great pic btw!
At the moment I am really addicted to brownies, but I started looking at blondies more and more often :))) great yummy recipe! I will save it ๐
I think that was the year I got a bunch of “Madonna” themed birthday gifts. Funky headbands, gloves, etc. And yep, I insisted to my mom too that if my hair ever got darker I was making it blonder again (it did and I do!). ๐ I love a good blondie too. My favorites have peanut butter chips in them. Mmmmm! Hope the first week of school went well!
You were seven, I was 15 when Madonna came on the scene. Love your confession. I have never dyed my hair (yet). The gray is getting worse…. it will come sooner than later. ๐ Love your blondies. ๐ Have a wonderful weekend. ~ Ramona
