Boy These Are Addicting

I know it's been awhile since my last post but I'm still alive I promise haha.  These last couple weeks have been CRAZY busy with school and football and friends and basically life so I haven't had time to sit down and blog.  I shouldn't be surprised since the semester is finishing up and we're getting into the holiday season.  Anyway, I have had time to be on Pinterest however haha.  We were going to have people over one night so I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to make something that I had stumbled upon on Pinterest.  The problem with finding recipes online is that they always make wayyy to much for just me so whenever I have an opportunity like this to make something for a large amount of people, I take it.  So while browsing on the site, I stumbled upon these super easy and extremely delicious cake batter blondies.  They caught by eye because they looked very appealing and tasty and who doesn't like anything with cake batter in it right?  I was sold as soon as I saw them and boy it was a great decision.  

Shockingly this time I actually followed the recipe that was posted on the blog.  But I'll re-write it again just to make it easier on y'all so here's what I used for this tasty little treat...

1 box of yellow cake mix (any brand is fine, it's just what you prefer)
1/4 cup canola oil
1 egg
1/2 cup non-fat milk (again you can use whatever percentage of milk that you prefer)
1/4 cup rainbow sprinkles
1/2 cup white chocolate chips

On the blog that I got the recipe from she said that the chocolate chips are optional but since y'all know me and how much I love chocolate chips, in my opinion they are mandatory haha.  So after going to the grocery store and gathering all the necessary ingredients, I started the baking process by preheating the oven to the standard 350 degrees.  While the oven was heating up, I mixed the first 4 ingredients in a big bowl.  On her post, she says to add the milk slowly in order to keep the batter as dense as possible but I honestly just poured it all in and it still worked just as well.  I then added the best part to the batter...the sprinkles and chocolate chips...

 Chocolate chips yummyyyy

Mixed batter

I mixed them all together and it was an arm workout.  This batter was DENSE but o so delicious.  I was hard not to eat it raw honestly but I did get a little bit of it after I added it to a 9x9 ceramic baking dish because who doesn't like the bowl and spoon at least a little bit before they wash it?  I then threw them in the oven...

Cake batter before it hit the oven

Once in the oven, the blondies baked for about 25 minutes because she said to cut the original time of 30 down since she used a casserole dish.  This time was perfect because the edges were just brown enough but the center was perfectly gooey.  I let them cool for about 30 minutes before cutting them and having a little sample for myself haha.  They were so delicious and o so addicting!  They were a HUGE hit when everyone came over and I heard nothing but good remarks.  It's always so nice to have people compliment your baking because then you know that you're doing something right haha.  I would definitely recommend this for anyone to make because it's really easy and doesn't require a lot of ingredients, which translates perfectly for a college treat.  This wasn't the only thing I made for that night though but if you want to know what else I made, you'll have to read my next post...
