These are pretty good, actually a little too sweet (maybe too much jam for my tastes?). I didn't have spelt flour (not even sure what it is), so I used regular - not sure if that makes a difference...the batter comes out extremely thick - use a heavy duty mixer/blender. They taste like a peanut butter and jelly mixture...not so much like a blondie. glad i tried this. Made for PAC Fall 2009
