Blondies with Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting
These Blondies with Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting taste like a cross between carrot cake and blondies – They’re simply delicious! But, this isn’t just any frosting… This is cream cheese frosting with a bit of cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla thrown in. If there were a cross between a blondie and carrot cake – this would be it. Perfect deliciousness… Chewy blondies with those decadent carrot cake spices and whipped cream cheese frosting.
So, pretty much we’re taking all the “nutrition” out of carrot cake – I’m just borrowing the best part – The frosting! I solemnly vow to eat a handful of baby carrots as my penance snack for the day after indulging in these yummy treats. I will hereby eat 10 baby carrots for each of these blondies with cinnamon cream cheese frosting that I inhale.
