The equipment you use can have a big impact on how a recipe turns out. I recommend using this Wilton brand 9x9 baking dish that comes with plastic lids! It is not only perfect for baking up your Valentine's Day Blondies, but for storing any leftovers so that they don't go stale. You can find a great 9x9 baking pan set on Amazon for a super low price here.
Preheat your oven to 350 and grease a 9x9 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray and set it aside.
In a medium bowl, beat together butter, white and brown sugar until fluffy, about 5 minutes.
Add eggs and vanilla and beat well.
In a small bowl, combine your dry ingredients: flour, baking powder and salt and add to your mixing bowl. Beat just until just combined.
Fold into batter. Spoon batter into prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 25 minutes.
Next you are going to add 1/2 cup candies, mini semi sweet chocolate chips and 8 crushed Oreo cookies.
Remove from oven and crush additional 2 cookies and sprinkle on top and gently press into dough.
Hint: While the blondies are still hot, sprinkle with the remaining candies and gently press them into the top layer. Allow the blondies to cool down completely before cutting.
This best blondie recipe for Valentine's Day is so easy to change up to suit your individual taste buds.
Whether you like more cookies, more chocolate chips, or more M&Ms, as long as you keep the ratios the same, they will still cook according to our instructions and come out amazing!

If you are changing the types of mix-ins you are using in our Blondies Recipe, or adding extra chocolate chips, cookies or pretzel pieces, make sure to keep an eye on it while it is cooking. I suggest checking it 5 minutes before it should be ready to make sure that it is cooking all the way through, and at the recommended cooking time to make sure that it isn't gooey in the middle. Adding additional ingredients might make it take a few minutes longer to cook all the way through.
