Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional, walnuts or pecans work well)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal later.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and brown sugar. Whisk them together until well blended and creamy. Add in the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly mixed.
  4. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula or wooden spoon, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Gently fold in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts (if using), ensuring they are evenly dispersed throughout the batter.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, using the spatula to spread it out evenly.
  7. Place in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
  8. Remove from the oven and let the blondies cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Use the parchment paper to lift them out of the pan and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Once cooled, slice into squares or bars. Enjoy your delicious blondies warm, at room temperature, or even cold!

Notes

  • For extra decadence, consider using a mix of chocolate chips (semi-sweet, milk, or dark).
  • Ensure your butter is melted but not hot when combining with sugar to prevent premature cooking.
  • Do not overmix the batter after adding the dry ingredients to maintain a tender texture.
  • Cooling the blondies completely before slicing helps them set for cleaner cuts.
