I’m pretty boring when it comes to chocolate.  I am happy to stay in my little rut of eating 60% dark chocolate.  Most other chocolates really don’t even tempt me at all.  I can be around milk chocolate all day long and I not feel any desire to eat it, and the same goes for white chocolate.  However, there are a few people around me who do not share my obsession with 60% chocolate so occasionally I do force myself to try some recipes that appeal to others.

A while ago I tried a recipe for blonde brownies and I have to say that it was a really good recipe and I have made it several times.  The brownies have white chocolate and white chocolate chips in them.  Usually the recipe calls for coconut but some people in my family are a little unsure about the coconut which we usually leave out.  I was wanting to make something to send to my son in Belgium and since he did not get my chocoholic gene, I decided that I would make him blonde brownies. I decided to leave out the coconut but to add macadamia nuts.
