Christmas baking season starts the weekend after Thanksgiving right?! I'm getting in the mood with these white chocolate blondies topped with peppermint frosting. The blondies are cut into triangles and then frosted to resemble little Christmas trees!
How to Make White Chocolate Blondies


Tips for White Chocolate Blondies
- Bake in a 9x9 inch square pan.
- Let blondies cool completely before cutting. Measure and cut triangles by cutting out a piece of paper in the size triangle you want. Then lay the piece of paper on top of the blondies and use it as a cutting guide. Alternating the end of the paper for each section. *see pics
- You will have a little sliver of blondie left from the corners after cutting triangles. Just sneak a few taste tests as you decorate 🙂
- Make sure to use room temperature butter when making your frosting.
- If the frosting tastes too sweet, simply add a ½ teaspoon of kosher salt to the mix and blend again.
- Unfrosted blondies can be wrapped in plastic wrap and stored in an air tight container in the fridge.
- Frosted blondies can be stored in an air tight container at either room temp or in the fridge for 2-3 days.
- Styled on plate with placing two triangles side by side and a cinnamon stick in the middle to look like a tree trunk. 🙂
