….it’s relentless around here. It’s unavoidable, so typically I just give in to it.
(In moderation, of course).
The sweet tooth has struck again & I’ve got just the dessert to conquer it.
I’m a snickerdoodle fanatic & I think it has rubbed off on my husband because when I verbally went through a list with him of new sweets I wanted to test out, as soon as i got, “snicker-….” out of my mouth, he declared that one the winner for today.
So here we go. I hope you’re ready.
Snickerdoodle Blondies
2 & 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups packed brown sugar
1 cup of butter, room temperature
2 eggs, room temperature
1 tablespoon vanilla
2 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
If you’re anything like me, your cabinet will already be stocked with these fine things. Those are my favorite sweets to make. The ones i don’t have to go on a grocery store hunt to complete.
First, whisk to combine flour, salt, & baking powder. (These 3 ingredients can easily be substituted by using self-rising flour, which i almost always do.
Next, add the butter, eggs, brown sugar, and vanilla to your mixing bowl and beat until smooth.
Add your flour mixture gradually until well combined & it looks about like this.
The stuff is pretty thick, like cookie dough.
Evenly spread into a greased glass 9×13 casserole dish.
Mix together cinnamon & sugar in a small bowl & sprinkle over dough to cover.
Bake in the oven on 350 for 25-30 minutes, or until the surface bounces back when lightly pressed.
Let these babies cool, cut them into squares & serve them up with vanilla ice cream, coffee, or a cold glass of milk! Trust me, they won’t last long.
