Gina's Notes:

Sweet blondies with decadent Almond Joy Pieces. A quick and delicious treat! You can add slivered almonds, mini semi sweet chips or coconut to tweak this recipe too!

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9 x 13 inch baking pan.

In mixer cream together sugar and butter. Add eggs one at a time, then vanilla, mix til combined. In a small bowl sift together dry ingredients. Add by 3/4 cupful to creamed mixture til thoroughly combined. Stir in Almond Joy Pieces and any extras you choose to add.

Spread into pan, it will be thick, but it will spread out to cover entire pan. Bake for 25 minutes. Cool several minutes before cutting into 16 bars.

I made this last night. It tasted okay, but not as sweet as a blondie normally tastes. We are going to top it with ice cream for dessert tonight, and that should improve on the sweetness. Next time I make it, I might add maple syrup or another sweetener to enhance the taste. But there are people who prefer not-as-sweet desserts, and this might be better for them.
