Method
- Line an 8 inch square pan with parchment, leaving an overhang for easy lifting. Lightly mist with cooking spray. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Microwave butter in a heatproof bowl in short bursts until melted. Let it cool for 5 minutes so it does not scramble the eggs.
- Whisk the melted butter with the brown sugar and optional granulated sugar until glossy. Add eggs and vanilla and whisk until thick and smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and cayenne pepper (optional or pinch for mild).
- Fold dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula just until combined. Fold in chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, and chopped candy.
- Scrape batter into prepared pan and smooth the top with spatula.
- Optional devil swirl: Stir cocoa powder with sugar and water to form paste. Drizzle thin lines over surface and drag toothpick to create a web effect.
- Bake for 22 to 26 minutes until edges are set and center is puffed and golden with moist crumbs on toothpick.
- Cool on rack for at least 45 minutes. Lift out bars by parchment and cool completely to set bars for clean slices.
- For red drizzle, tint melted white chocolate with red gel color and flick or pipe lines across surface. Press candy eyes on while drizzle is tacky.
- Slice into 16 small squares or 9 large squares with a sharp knife wiping blade between cuts. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes
Deviled Blondies are flexible and forgiving. Swap mix-ins, adjust spice, and decorate as desired. Use leftover Halloween candy to elevate these delicious bars.
