Hey, Nan,
Sam has a recipe for making brown sugar from white sugar and molasses. A jar of molasses keeps forever, so just keep that on hand for when you run out of brown sugar.

Can I use crunchy peanut butter in this recipe?

In reply to Shifa. I'm not really sure but it shouldn't be an issue. Actually many people strive to achieve a slight crackle on top. :)

In reply to Bruce. Hi, my one is a bit cracked on the surface. Why is that??

I’d merged two of your great recipes to make Peanut Butter Blondies Bites with Ganache. I left out the milk and baked them like your brownie bites. 1/2 recipe makes 27, or 24 with a generous amount left for licking the bowl. 350°F for 18 minutes, like the brownie bites. I have pictures, but don’t think there’s a way to add them here.

In reply to Nan. As long as you have the ratio correct for the mix I don't see any reason it wouldn't work. :)

In reply to Sam. Thanks so much for your quick responses! I have another question- sorry I have so many questions lol- can I sub the brown sugar for white sugar mixed with pure maple syrup or maybe just plain white sugar? I love brown sugar in recipes but I use it so much that I keep running out of it :)

In reply to Nan. Hi Nan! I believe an 8 inch square pan will work here. :)

Hi! Hope you are having a great day 🙂 I was wondering if I half this recipe, what size pan should I bake it in?

I’m pre-rating it 5 stars. I have a half batch in the oven now, since it’s just me. This is easily done by hand with a wooden spoon, if you would like. I’m sure these are as good as the Snicker Doodle Blondies. I did mistake my 1/2 tablespoon for a 1/2 tsp for the baking soda, so mine will be too puffy, but that will be fine. I’m sure I’ll make another half batch soon!

In reply to Ruth. I hope you love them, Ruth! This is an older recipe from before I used weights, I’ll have to get it updated with weights soon!

Hoping these come out okay. I’m so used to your recipes having weights this really threw me off lol.

Oh my gosh! How heavenly are these! A thick peanut butter bar with dark chocolate brushed on top? Count me in! This is so the thing I would rush to the kitchen to after work just to bake up and devour as my time-off treat <3

In reply to Adina. Thanks Adina! And yes, just regular butter would be right :)

Oh wow! These blondie bars look droolicious, Sam. Can’t wait to try.

The bars look delicious, I would love to try them. What is sweet cream butter? I suppose I can use normal butter instead?

I know you might not believe me but I’ve never made a bond bar before in my life. THIS is the one I am trying! 🙂 Pinning! Happy weekend Sam!
