Total Time: 40 mins Preparation Time: 20 mins Cook Time: 20 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 24
• 6 tablespoons margarine
• 1 3/4 cups brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon vanilla
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 3/4 cup mini chocolate chip

Recipe

• 1 preheat oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit.
• 2 melt margarine in a glass mixing bowl, in the microwave. ("zap" on low power until it looks melted).
• 3 stir in brown sugar; add vanilla; add eggs.
• 4 stir in flour and baking powder; stir in chocolate chips.
• 5 spread/pour batter into a 9 x 13" baking pan.
• 6 bake 19 minutes. (until toothpick inserted 2" from edge comes out clean)blondies will firm as they cool.
• 7 cool completely in pan on a wire rack.
• 8 variations:.
• 9 sometimes i substitute the 3/4 cup chocolate chips for 1/2 cup butterscotch chips. i think that too much of the butterscotch flavor can be overpowering.
• 10 my second idea is a little more unconventional as far as blondies go. omit the chocolate chips, stir in some cinnamon, allspice and ginger.
