Copycat Applebee's Blondie Brownies

Copycat Applebee's Blondie Brownies are so amazing! Have you tried? I decided to do a little spin on it and added in some chopped Granny Smith Apples because it's fall.  We also add in some white chocolate chips and walnuts and then topped them off with a Maple Cream Cheese Glaze to give it some sweetness. Plus some ice cream!!  Hello!

For the apple choice, I love those Granny Smith's, but feel free to add in your favorite apple flavor to these blondie brownies or leave them out.   It's whatever your little heart desires.  Don't they look scrumptious?
