BIZZY BAKES

This is a recipe, I took from my old blog, My Sweet and Savory.  I plan to make these for Shabbos and hope to post a new and better photo of the blondies. I have not made Dories' baked goods in a while and I love her recipes.  When I saw this, I decided that I could not wait any longer to indulge myself so hopefully, in a day or two, these will exist again in our house.  They are for my wonderful grandson and his wife who are joining on this Shabbos. Here is a photo of the new blondies.  Instead of covering the whole blondie with chocolate. I dropped spatters over it.

"Baking GALS (GALS stands for Give A Little Support) is a group of volunteer bakers from around the country who bake and ship homemade goodies to our heroic military men and women who are currently deployed in a war zone. Our goal is to show our support and send a little bit of home to remind them that we appreciate all that they do for our freedom." It is another month and I am baking once again through the group, Baking Gals.   This is not a big deal to do, but I can only  hope, it makes a difference to those receiving my cookies.  In selecting cookies, I look for quick, easy and delicious recipes.  QED means, I can bake more quickly and since I do this in a limited time frame, that is important.  The recipes, we send should be good to eat but those that are not going to melt if they end up in a hot area.  As a result, I leave out frosting or decorations.  I do include chips in the cookies as well as nuts and dried fruit, depending on th...
