Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease and line an 8x8 inch (20x20 cm) baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and well combined.
Add the peanut butter to the sugar mixture and whisk until fully incorporated.
Whisk in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula, being careful not to overmix.
If using, fold in the peanut butter chips for an extra burst of flavor.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Remove the pan from the oven and let the blondies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Once cooled, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the blondies out of the pan. Slice into 12 squares and enjoy!
