Chocolate Cherry Blondies

One of our favorite things is when one of our Citizens shares a photo showing how they are enjoying their ruby red morsels of joy. Recently Didi’s Sweet and Treats out of Troy, Michigan, shared this yummy photo of Chocolate Cherry Blondies on her Instagram page. (She used Cherry Republic Montmorency Dried Cherries, which she calls “the best!”) Here’s her recipe for you to make at home!
