Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 35 minutes
Makes: 16 servings

Ingredients:

3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/3 cup butter
1/4 cup peanut butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 egg
2 tsp vanilla extract
10 SNICKERS® Minis, chopped
3 tbsp chopped peanuts
1 tube brown or black gel icing
16 mini chocolate-covered pretzels, cut in half
32 small candy eyes
2 tbsp Christmas sprinkles

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease 8-inch round baking pan. Line bottom with parchment paper; set aside. Whisk together flour, baking powder and salt; set aside.
Melt butter and peanut butter in saucepan set over medium heat. While still hot, stir in brown sugar; remove from heat. Transfer to large bowl; let cool slightly.
Beat in egg and vanilla until incorporated. Stir in flour mixture until just combined. Fold in chopped Snickers and peanuts. Scrape batter into prepared pan, smoothing top.
Bake on middle rack for 20 to 25 minutes or until tester inserted in center comes out with just a few moist crumbs clinging to it. Let cool completely on rack. Carefully remove from pan; cut into 16 wedges.
Pipe dots on tip of each blondie with icing to resemble reindeer’s nose. Using icing as glue, add pretzel antlers and candy eyes. Decorate between antlers with candy sprinkles.

Tips:

• Wrap these treats individually in festive holiday cellophane for easy gift-giving.
• For speedy preparation, use a store-bought blondie mix.
