Addictive Marzipan Blondie Bites

Small and cute, but highly addictive, these marzipan blondie bites are filled with goodness that make them irresistible.

These Marzipan Blondies Bites are filled with sweet white chocolate, marzipan chunks and a whole lot of rainbow sprinkles. They’re gooey, moorish. And fun, in a childish sense. A good, humble blondie is something I’ll never be able to resist, they’re often what I crave – and something I love making. Make me a blondie, and I’ll be yours, forever.

Though you can cut them however you desire, in bars, slices, boldly in triangles – I prefer to cut the blondie into mini bite-sized cubes. Mainly because they’re just so god-damn little, addictive and cute. Put them into a bowl, and it’s almost like popcorn, dangerous. You can eat ten and still feel like a champion.

Recipe Notes:
