This month the What’s Baking? Challenge was hosted by Sandra of She Cooks and Bakes!  She challenged us to bake with Valentine’s Day colors which was perfect because I was planning on doing that anyhow!

    When I think of Valentine’s Day desserts I think of sweet, pretty, and pink.  These brown sugar blondies are all of those things.  The blondies are full of sweet brown sugar, are mixed with chocolate chunks and Valentine’s M&M’s, then sprinkled on top with the M&M’s.  I served these treats to my students at school and they were begging for more!
