ORGANIC CANE SUGAR:
- This sugar gives a sweet taste to the dessert and provides tender crumbs. It makes the blondies lightly golden after baking. You may use white granulated sugar as another idea.

- Almond milk gives moisture without making the batter heavy. It also maintains the sweetness in the recipe. You may use soy milk as a substitute.
