Blondies

- 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder

Frosting
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 2 cups Lucky Charms cereal

Directions
For the blondies:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line an 8X8 pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl combine melted butter and brown sugar. Mix with a nonstick spatula until combined.
- Add in eggs + vanilla and mix again.
- In a separate smaller bowl, combine flour, salt, and baking powder.
- Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix until combined.
- Pour into the lined 8X8 pan.
- Place in oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes until the edges are browned and the center looks slightly underdone.
For the frosting:
- In a large bowl, pour the cereal and the heavy cream. Let cereal soak for at least 30 minutes longer the better!
- Using a sieve, strain the heavy cream from the cereal into a large bowl.
- Add confectioner’s sugar to the strained heavy cream and beat using an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
- Spread using an offset spatula onto cooled blondies.
- Scatter marshmallows on top and cut into squares!
