White Chocolate Gingerbread Blondies

Once in a while I come across a recipe that is simply perfect and I make that recipe over and over again. That is the case with these amazing White Chocolate Gingerbread Blondies. They were served at a church function by a lovely woman named Molly years ago. Everyone went nuts over them and so she handed out the recipe like a true friend. That recipe has graced my cookie plates and many holiday parties since.

I’m not crazy over gingerbread but this is just the right mix of sweet, spiced, ginger, and chocolate to make an outstanding treat. Plus you bake them in bar form in a sheet cake pan. I love this! You end up with around four dozen treats that you didn’t have to roll, dip, slice, or frost. So they taste great, make a bunch, and are easy. What’s not to love?!

I’m finishing up the last of my baking right now and plan to start dropping off treat plates tonight. And yes, these are definitely on them!
