Chewy Chocolaty Gingerbread Blondies

Dark, chewy and flavourful. That’s how we like our brownies and these gingerbread blond brownies fit that category perfectly. They’re loaded with warming spices, molasses and just enough chocolate chips to add a little gooeyness. Think of these as brownies with personality.

Chewy Chocolaty Gingerbread Blondies

Dark, chewy and flavourful Gingerbread Blondies. Also called blond brownies, these squares get extra flavour from spices and lots of chocolate chips.

    These are so easy to make and so yummy. Just the right balance of chewy on the outside and soft inside and I think that I like them better than brownies. Great flavour and a new hit in my household.

    Your emails contain recipes that cannot be printed without downloading virus-laden software. This is very disappointing. It means that I can’t print the recipes out, so it’s a complete waste of time.
