Butterfinger Blondies

Why not bring you another sweet treat?!  I have been so good about trying sweet treats this month, not so great about trying new dinner recipes.  I have just been making old favorites like Zupa Toscana, Crockpot Ranch Chicken Tacos, and Crispy Ravioli.  I will be working on some new dinner recipes soon...I promise!

Anyhow, back to these bars.  They are delicious...super rich and wonderful.  They are a great way to use a leftover bag of Halloween candy and everyone will love them!  Enjoy :)

1 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
