You have got to try these blondies! They are seriously Heaven on Earth. The pecan layer just melts into the blondies for a sweet, nutty, decadent treat. I had a hard time reigning in my self control with these. They are definitely a keeper and the perfect treat for this time or year. The original recipe has a chocolate drizzle on top so if that sounds good to you, go for it. I thought they were plenty rich without. Pecan Pie Blondies
