Ingredients:
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cups light brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup white chocolate chips or chunks
- 1 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans), optional
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
- Melt the Butter: In a microwave-safe bowl or using a saucepan, melt the butter. Allow it to cool slightly.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and brown sugar until well combined and smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Add Mix-ins: Fold in the white chocolate chips and nuts (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Transfer to the Baking Pan: Spread the blondie batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
- Bake: 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 wet batter).
- Cool: Allow the blondies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, you can lift them out using the parchment paper overhang and cut into squares.
- Serve: Serve the blondies on their own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra treat.
