Blondie, blondies...




Blondie, a rich, sweet bar cookie or an American new wave punk band fronted by Debbie Harry. I happen to enjoy both very much, unfortunately, sometimes I enjoy the band at karaoke night after too much liquid confidence belting out “One Way or Another” with bravado.

This past snow day home all alone, I put on Autoamerican, my favorite childhood album and made Blondies, sing out loud to my hearts content. The recipe is a variation from Smitten Kitchen’s adapted Blondie recipe and it's oh-so good.

I made my blondies with chocolate chips, bananas and walnuts, because its what I had in my pantry but the possibilities are endless.

8 tablespoons melted butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
pinch of salt
1 cup all purpose flour
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup mashed banana
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Prepare a 8x8 pan with butter, set aside. Melt butter and mix with brown sugar until smooth. Beat in egg and vanilla. Add pinch of salt and flour mix until just combined. Stir in chocolate chips, banana, chopped walnuts. Bake at 350 degrees or until middel has just set.
