If you’re looking for a simple, no-bake snack recipe look no further. You have found what you’re looking for with these blondies. This no-bake recipe is made with crushed graham crackers, peanut
They literally take about 5 minutes to make. Although, they cut better if you allow them to sit in the refrigerator for an hour or two. If you don’t mind perfectly cut blondies dig into them as soon as they mixed together.
Graham Cracker Blondies
I used regular graham crackers, but you can use chocolate graham crackers or vanilla wafers. I suppose you can actually use any cookie just be sure to weigh and use the same quantity.
As well, I used peanut
I had the whole peanut thing going on and peanuts for my nuts. You can substitute any nut. Pecans, walnuts, or almonds would all be delicious.
For the sweetened condensed milk, I had regular so that’s what I used. However, you can use low-fat or fat-free in this recipe. I don’t typically like the way lower-fat products in baked treats. Although, when they aren’t baked I can’t really tell a difference in taste or texture.
Finally, you can double this recipe and use a 9×13-inch baking pan.

Can the nuts/peanuts be omitted from the Graham Cracker Blondie bars or could something else be substituted? My daughter has a severe allergy to all nuts and peanuts. The recipe sounds delicious (minus the nuts!) and I would love to be able to make it. Thanks, Tracey
You can omit them. If you want you can replace them with chocolate chips or not replace them with anything, the recipe will still be delish.
How can you tell if your crackers are to old to use????
tasting is the only way I know unless you have the box with the date on it.
I am totally going to use this as the base layer for a s’mores ice cream cake!
Yum!!
