These blondies are perfect for the Fourth of July. Butter and brown sugar are mixed together. Then eggs and vanilla are added with salt, baking powder and flour. Next red, white & blue M&Ms and sprinkles are stirred into the batter. The batter is spread into a baking dish and baked until golden. The colors of the M&Ms and sprinkles can be changed for whatever holiday you want.

Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 F. Line a 9x13 baking pan with foil and spray well with cooking spray.
Mix butter and brown sugar with an electric mixer until crumbly. Mix in eggs and vanilla until smooth. Mix in salt, baking powder, and then flour. Stir in M&Ms and sprinkles.
Spread in prepared pan. The mixture is wet so it’s best to spray your hands with cooking spray and then smooth the dough with your hands to get an even layer. Top with extra M&Ms if desired.
Bake for 22-25 minutes until they just start to turn golden. Err on the side of under baked with these – they’ll finish baking as they cool.
