peanut butter blondies

sometimes, at the end of the day, i want to trade in dinner for a fresh, homemade cookie.

i wish my story ended with a dinner of cookies. (don't tell me you've never done it before.) sadly, it ended with a grilled chicken salad. don't get me wrong, the salad was good, chicken perfectly grilled, but it was the cookie i really wanted.

so while i was supposed to be inside making a salad while jason mowed the lawn, i was half making a salad and half making these bars.

i don't know why i don't make blondies more often. honestly, this may be the very first time i made them. i was expecting a peanut butter cookie with chocolate chips in bar form. and i was ever so slightly disappointing.

"not enough peanut butter."

that was the first thing i said with my mouth half full of hot blondie. yes, they definitely taste like peanut butter. maybe my hopes were too high. and honestly, i almost always have the same criticism for peanut butter cookies. i've yet to meet one that had enough peanut butter.
