Marshmallow Blondies

I remember being so intrigued the first time I saw a blondie. Who knew the richness and denseness of a brownie could be captured in light-colored form? Since then, I've preferred blondies over brownies, and it's not entirely based on the fact I love saying the word "blondie."

Well, with all the food blog reading I do in a day, I come across many many fascinating blogs and people. And that is how I stumbled upon this blondie recipe. Myriam at Once upon a tart has a browniebabe of the month event, and Deborah at Taste and Tell entered in this recipe in the first browniebabe of the month. I fell in love with the recipe and had to try it. Then I fell in love with the blondie, and I know I'll have to make it again.
