Easter Blondies

When life hands you 4.4 lbs of incredible dark chocolate, think of every recipe that calls for dark chocolate and make it!  I figured to be festive, I would make these really easy (and super cute) blondies.  Best part about these little treats is you can adapt them for any holiday :)

1 cup of flour
1/2 cup good quality dark chocolate, chopped
1 bag of Easter M&Ms (optional)
