Dark Chocolate Chunk Blondies

These blondies are one of my favorite quick recipes. It is fairly easy and uses very practical ingredients. These are great when served warm with ice cream or eaten with milk. They are absolutely delicious! Enjoy and get creative! 

My little brother Darius helped me with these. We spent the whole day together shopping, eating, and baking. Great sibling bonding!
