Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 170 grams Unsalted butter
- 220 grams Light brown sugar
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 2 units Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 200 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 150 grams Chocolate chips or chunks (optional)
- 100 grams Chopped nuts (optional, such as pecans or walnuts)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it, ensuring the edges have some overhang to easily lift the blondies out after baking.
In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Once melted, let it cool slightly to room temperature.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the bowl. Whisk again until the mixture is fully combined and a bit glossy.
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. Be careful not to overmix. The batter should be thick and well-combined.
If using chocolate chips or chopped nuts, gently fold them into the batter at this stage.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (but not raw batter).
Remove the pan from the oven and let the blondies cool completely in the pan. Once cool, lift them out using the parchment paper and slice into 12 squares or your desired size.
Serve and enjoy your perfect blondies! Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
