Goose's Circus Cookie Blondies
Goose's Circus Cookie Blondies
This recipe combines both Golden Oreos and Mother's Circus Animal Cookies, so it's no question that it's one of my favorites! This is obviously suited for Halloween with the Halloween edition of the cookies, but just trade the orange frosting for pink and you have a recipe that would work all year round!
It's inspired by Captain Marvel's Goose, who is much cuter in Funko Pop form than as a Flerken. But be careful, because he can still take your eye out!

1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour

Instructions
Prep: Pre-heat oven to 350°. Line a 13x9 pan with parchment paper and grease with non-stick cooking oil. Line the bottom of the pan with Golden oreos.
Blondies: In a medium sized bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Set aside.
Blondies: Melt 1 cup of butter in a small saucepan. Stir the butter constantly until the butter begins to foam. Continue stirring for 5-8 more minutes, being sure to scrape the bottom of the pan. Continue cooking until the butter is golden brown, smells nutty, and golden bits have formed at the bottom of the pan. Immediately remove the pan from heat and pour into a large heat-proof bowl. Allow to cool for 2 minutes.
Blondies: Add 1 & 1/2 cup of light brown sugar and 1/2 cup of granulated sugar to the melted butter. Beat until well-combined. Add 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract, 2 large eggs, and 1 egg yolk. Stir until batter is well-combined and smooth.
Blondies: Carefully fold in the flour.
Blondies: Press the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake 20 minutes until the blondies are golden around the edges.
Blondies: Remove the blondies from the oven and allow to completely cool.
Frosting: In a large bowl, beat 1/2 cup of salted butter until creamy and smooth. Beat in 2 tablespoons of heavy cream, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla. Beat in the powdered sugar. Add orange food coloring.
Assembly: Spread the frosting over the top of the blondies. Add the Halloween Circus Animal cookies and sprinkles.
Enjoy!
