Notes

Serve warm or at room temperature. Great with vanilla ice cream, tea, or coffee. Store blondies in an airtight container for up to three days at room temperature or up to a week in the fridge. Reheat in microwave for a few seconds. Make sure to chop strawberries into small pieces for even flavor. Do not overmix the batter; mix until just combined for soft blondies.
