Lazy Day Blondie Bites

Sometimes I just crave a treat that is sweet and simple. Something that doesn’t need decorating and something I don’t feel compelled to make look super cute. So this afternoon when I wanted to sink my teeth into something sugary while I watched Netflix, I went to the pantry to see what I could whip up in a hurry. I’m low on supplies right now but I did have some an opened bag of butterscotch chips and one single egg left, so I decided to make these decadent little blondies.

These are great because you only need a handful of everyday ingredients.

And they are super quick to whisk together.

Bake the blondies and when cool, cut into small squares. These are pretty sweet, so you really don’t need a big bar.

Here’s how to make them.
