Cadbury Eggs or Peanut M&M Eggs?

I love testing out new festive treats for each of the holidays. It helps to spread the “cheer” throughout the year instead of all the focus being on Thanksgiving and Christmas!

Easter has become like my second Thanksgiving and I have so much fun testing out things for my menu. These blondies came to mind when I saw the pastel colored peanut M&M eggs on the end cap of my grocery store and snagged them knowing I would come up with something to play around with. I loved seeing the Cadbury Egg version of blondies which are super cute and also provided great inspiration.

I am forever a lover of peanut butter and chocolate together and this is the perfect match up. Not only are they cute and so festive for Easter, but everyone that has tried them has loved them!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make these Easter blondies ahead of time?

Yes, you can make them a day in advance. For best taste and freshness, I recommend only 24 hours before serving. They will still be good if it is longer, but again, not as fresh.

How do I know when the blondies are done?

The edges will be set and golden, and the center should be just slightly soft. They will firm up as they cool in the pan.

Can I use regular peanut M&Ms instead of the eggs?

Yes, use whatever you are able to find. The egg version is just more festive for Easter with its pastel colors.
