Coffee Blondies

I’ve made these blondies a million times, for every possible occasion. When we made them at the Blue Heron Coffeehouse, they were a customer favorite immediately, and forever a bakery case staple. While many of my afternoons in college were highlighted by this coffee bar, they have also made appearances throughout my adult life: birthdays, funerals, baby showers, after-school snacks, or just because. They bake up thin, full of chocolate and espresso, and they are truly perfect.
