Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Blondies

You had me at peanut butter chocolate chip, blondie. And I instantly fell in love. My two favorite combinations in one delicious blondie. Then drizzled with chocolate on top? Yum. I knew when I saw this recipe on a friends blog I had to make it. And how cute are these for Valentines day cut into a heart shape? My oven seems to be going on the fritz lately. Very frustrating for a food blogger. So I couldn’t fully enjoy this amazingness of this blondie. Hopefully soon I can get my oven looked at so that I can make these again and have them baked to perfection.

Rating: 3 stars (only because of oven issues) Difficulty of Recipe: 2 stars
Review:  I doubled the recipe because I wanted to make a 9×13. Because of my oven I have to make these again because it cooks very unevenly. I still loved the bite that I had and they are seriously so good with the peanut butter and chocolate flavor combo. I will definitely be making these again!
