A blondie, is officially a white chocolate brownie...and a brownie, is a dark chocolate blondie. How's that for an explanation?

Put them together and you have Black and White Brownies, or blondies...depending on your thought process. Whatever, they are amazing. If we say so ourselves. As Christmas approaches, this is a great gift idea for a family as there is more than enough for everyone. This recipe makes a huge amount! HUGE. So be prepared for gifting. We found them difficult to give away as they were so good, but given the summer and bikini weather is near, we packaged them up and sent them off to work with the various workers in our household. The resounding response back was that they are the best brownies ever. EVER. Big claim, but we are standing by it.

Try them yourself and see. Please tag me! I would normally reserve a great recipe such as this, for Insiders only, but there is so much to celebrate just now, I cannot.

(Think freedom from lockdowns, border openings, a new cookbook and book launch, Christmas! I could keep going. Life is good!) I hope you get a little piece of this at least before you grudgingly admit you shouldn't eat the whole thing. Enjoy!
