Blondie recipes are super simple to make and much easier than cookies and this is the best blondie recipe for Christmas! Adding the red & green M&Ms makes these traditional blondies into a festive holiday treat! Great for holiday parties, Christmas cookie swaps, gifts, and beyond! They are prepped and baked in under 30 minutes.

What Exactly Are Holiday Blondies? Blondies vs. Brownies

They’re a cross between a cookie and a brownie, my favorites! Blondies are chewy and sweet like a cookie but are dense like brownies. They’re also made in a brownie dish, so the process is much faster and less clean up than if you were to make cookies.

This really is a delicious Christmas cookie bar recipe that everyone will love! Warm and gooey straight out of the oven pairs well with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Or at room temperature, once they’re firm, they will be chewy and still so scrumptious!

Proud of us💪🏽 trying my best over here inclu Proud of us💪🏽 trying my best over here including flexing that *discipline* muscle so things like working out become a habit again, no matter how crazy my day gets. 

Surprisingly, motivation isn’t always *there* especially when juggling kids/home/work/life and my workout is the first to get pushed aside. 

But I love working out, feeling strong and setting a healthy example for my kids that I deserve to take care of me too. 

The goal is always to feel my best mentally and physically which then pours into my family. Slowly but surely I’m determined to make my way back to ME 🤍
