Easy Peanut Butter Blondies

These are very easy and really good brownies.  I like to add walnuts to mine, but you can leave them out if you don't like nuts.  Also, you can use a chocolate cake mix for more of a Chocolate/Peanut Butter Brownie.

Easy Peanut Butter Blondies

1 yellow cake mix
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup peanut butter (crunchy or creamy)
1 tsp. vanilla (I use hazelnut flavoring)
2 eggs
1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Beat all of the ingredients above together and pour into a 9x13" pan sprayed with cooking spray.  Bake at 350 degrees for about 35 to 40 minutes (or until brownies are browned on top).

Remove and cool for about 20 minutes. 

Frosting:  Mix 1 cup of powdered sugar, 1 tsp. vanilla and about 3 Tbsp. of water.  Beat well and drizzle over warm brownies.  Cut into squares and serve.

Yum Yum!  Enjoy!
