Gluten-Free Peanut Butter Blondies image

I converted these blondies to be gluten-free so that my family could enjoy a comforting dessert. We were really craving brownies one night, and this cakelike treat hit the spot! They're an enticing spin on gluten-free peanut butter chocolate chip cookies. -Becky Klope, Loudonville, New York

These blondies were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add an extra egg next time.
