Recipe: Blondies

We have a new favorite weekend dessert at our house - blondies.  The rest of the family seems to like them even more than their more common cousin, the brownie.  The mere mention of them makes Madi's voice drop several octaves as she growls "Blonndeeeeees" and then starts jumping around.  I love them because they are SO stinkin' easy.

Blondies

Ingredients:
1 box white cake mix
1/3 c. brown sugar, packed
2 eggs
1/3 c. milk
scant 1 c. butterscotch chips

Directions:
Preheat oven to 325.
Combine all ingredients.  Mixture will be super dense and hard to spread.  Do your best to fill a greased 13x9 pan evenly.  Bake for 35 minutes.  Try to let them cool before consuming the entire pan.

You can use whatever combination of cake mix flavor and chip type you like.  Nuts would be good, too, if you're so inclined.  Our first batch was white cake and chocolate chip.  Over time, we've found that white works better than yellow, as it doesn't overwhelm the flavor of the chips.
