Blondies

Donald needed something for his work potluck last week, and I didn't have a whole lot of time to whip up something awesome (like a typical guy, he gave me exactly 1 evening's notice). I found this recipe on smittenkitchen.com which is one of my favorite cooking blots. They're simple and basic, but act as a good base that you can add fun things to. Enjoy!
