Hi Beth! Thank you so much for the recipe review. What a fun name your mom made up! I think “tannies” is perfect, lol. So glad you found this recipe and can get a taste of childhood. Happy baking!

Love this recipe! I have been looking for one like this for years. My Mom used to make, “tannies”, which I believe are actually blondies. I couldn’t get the meringue right until I found your recipe with brown sugar in the meringue. Love them, thanks. I still like Tannies for a name.

Hi Brenda! I typically use a large, sharp chef’s knife and wash it off between slices if it gets gooey. Honestly, even doing that you will still get cracks and that’s just part of the charm of meringue. If it gets too cracked, it’s a great excuse to eat it before anyone else notices.

Hi Judy, I’m sorry the batter turned out dry! So glad you found a fix and enjoyed these blondies 🙂 Thanks for your comment!

Thanks, Patty! They are definitely a keeper! 😀
