Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking pan with butter or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the brown sugar and granulated sugar until fully combined.
Let the mixture cool slightly, then whisk in the eggs and vanilla extract until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet sugar mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the white chocolate chips and chopped pecans (if using) until evenly distributed.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread into an even layer using a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-28 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
Remove from oven and allow the blonde brownies to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, slice into 12 squares or desired portions, and serve!
