Equipment Needed
For this recipe, you only need a few simple kitchen tools. We recommend using the following equipment:
How to make Thick and Chewy M&M Blondies:
- Preheat oven to 350℉. Spray a 9 x 13 inch pan with non stick cooking spray.
- In a medium sized bowl combine the butter, brown sugar, and sugar and mix until combined.
- Add in eggs and vanilla into the sugar mixture.
- In a separate bowl mix together the flour, baking soda,and salt.

- Bake for about 23-25 minutes or until golden brown. You can also insert a toothpick to see if it comes out clean to test for doneness.
- Cool completely and cut into squares.
Storage Suggestions
If you manage to have any leftover Bars + Brownies, these can store well if prepped appropriately. Once they have cooled completely, here is how you can store it:
- Refrigerator: Place in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 1 week. Let them come to room temperature before serving for the best texture and flavor.
- Freezer: To freeze, make sure bars and brownies are completely cooled and unfrosted. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap (or Press & Seal) and then place in a freezer-safe bag or container. For easier portioning, wrap individual squares before freezing. Don’t forget to label with the date. They’ll stay fresh in the freezer for up to 3 months.
- Counter: Store bars and brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days. If your kitchen is particularly warm, consider refrigerating instead to prevent them from getting too soft or melty.
