Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams Unsalted butter
- 200 grams Brown sugar
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 140 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 100 grams Chocolate chips or chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and grease or line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Once melted, remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the brown sugar and granulated sugar until the mixture is smooth.
Allow the butter and sugar mixture to cool slightly, then whisk in the eggs and vanilla extract until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until no streaks of flour remain. Be careful not to overmix.
If desired, fold in the chocolate chips or chopped nuts for added texture and flavor.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top 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 with a few moist crumbs.
Remove the pan from the oven and let the blonde brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting them into squares.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
