Dark Chocolate Almond Blondies<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 2 1\/2 cups all-purpose flour Preheat oven to 350\u00ba F. Grease 13 x 9-inch baking pan. Combine flour, baking soda and salt in small bowl, set aside. In mixer bowl, beat together brown sugar, butter and vanilla extract until creamy. Add eggs; beat until light and fluffy. Gradually stir in flour mixture. Stir in 3\/4 cup chips and 1\/2 cup chopped almonds. Spread into prepared pan. Sprinkle with remaining chunks and almonds (I lightly pressed them in). Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until golden brown and edges start pulling away from sides of pan. Cool, cut into squares (they’re pretty rich, so smaller is better, for me). Store tightly covered.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I\u00a0love the salty, sweet contrast, and of course\u00a0almonds and dark chocolate together.\u00a0 So good!
