Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter (melted, and slightly cooled)
  • 1 1/4 cups dark brown sugar (packed)
  • 1/2 cup granulated
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 TBS vanilla extract
  • 2 cups flour
  • 3/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 cup baking chips (butterscotch, semi-sweet chocolate, or white chocolate)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a 9x13 pan with parchment paper, and lightly grease with nonstick spray. Set it aside.
  • Add the melted butter and sugars to a large bowl and mix them together. 1 cup unsalted butter, 1 1/4 cups dark brown sugar, 1/2 cup granulated
  • Add in the eggs, and vanilla extract and stir until completely combined. 2 large eggs, 1 TBS vanilla extract
  • In another medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. 2 cups flour, 3/4 tsp baking powder, 1/2 tsp salt
  • Gently fold the dry ingredients in with the wet ingredients, just enough to combined.
  • Add in the baking chips, if using them. 1 1/2 cup baking chips
  • Scoop batter (it is thick) into the prepared pan and spread to the edges of the pan.
  • Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
  • Cool, before slicing into the bars and enjoying.
  • Store any remaining blondies in an airtight container for 2 to 3 days

Notes

  • Melted Butter - Melting your butter, then letting it cool slightly will give your bars an extra chewy texture.
  • Customize - Experiment with different mix-ins like white chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, cinnamon chips, or shredded coconut. About 1 1/2 cups total.
  • Do not Over Bake - Keep an eye on the blondies while baking, you want them to just be set in the center but they will keep cooking when taken out of the oven. We want to avoid dry bars, and keep them nice and chewy.
