Peanut Butter-Toffee Blondies

I have been under the weather this week. Because of that and our wintry precipitation, the Food Network has been on quite a bit. This recipe is from Down Home With the Neelys. Blondies are one of my favorite cookies because they are so easy (just spread the batter in a pan; no scooping required). The peanut butter flavor is subtle, but it pairs nicely with the toffee chips. Next time, I will add chocolate chips to the batter—they need a little more chocolate to balance the other flavors. Enjoy!


Peanut Butter-Toffee Blondies
1 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
3 eggs
1 Tbsp. milk
2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp. salt
1 package chocolate-covered toffee chips
1 package semisweet chocolate chips

1. Beat butter and next 3 ingredients until light and fluffy. Add in eggs, 1 at a time, beating just until blended after each addition. Add in milk and vanilla. Combine flour and salt; gradually add flour mixture to butter mixture. Add in toffee chips and chocolate chips. Pour batter into a lightly greased 13- x 9-inch pan.
2. Bake at 350° for 40 or until done.
