Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 170 grams Unsalted butter
- 200 grams Light brown sugar
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 200 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 150 grams Chocolate chips
- 30 grams Optional toppings (e.g., chopped nuts or sea salt)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease and line a 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, ensuring the paper hangs slightly over the edges for easy removal.
In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and allow it to cool slightly.
Whisk in the light brown sugar and granulated sugar until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
Add the eggs one at a time, whisking thoroughly after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Fold in the chocolate chips and any optional toppings, such as chopped nuts, if desired.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
Remove from the oven and let the blondies cool completely in the pan set on a wire rack.
Once cooled, lift the blondies out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into 16 squares and serve.
