One-Bowl Ooey Gooey Peanut Butter Chip Blondies - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 cup margarine or 1/2 cup butter
1 3/4 cups brown sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 ounces peanut butter chips

Preparation

In a large microwave-safe bowl, heat margarine or butter in the microwave on half-power until mostly melted.
With a wire whisk, mix in brown sugar. Beat in eggs and vanilla extract.
Dump in flour, baking soda and salt (if you're a purist, you can mix them in a separate bowl ahead of time, but I've always had just as good of results with the single-bowl method). Stir with a large wooden or plastic spoon until flour is completely incorporated.
Add peanut butter chips and stir.
Pour batter into a greased 13x9-inch pan and bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes or until it's nicely browned and looks set.
Meanwhile, eat any remaining batter sticking to the bowl. :).
If you like your blondies more done, you can bake them a bit longer until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. I have no idea how long that takes because I've never gone that far. I find they're just right at about 22 minutes, and definitely best when warm.
